Grandmother Scammed Out of $10K | Cincinnati News
Description
An 86-year-old woman with dementia in Mt. Washington was scammed out of $10,000 after骗子 called pretending her grandson was in an accident and needed bail money. They even drove her to the bank to withdraw the cash, exploiting her hearing issues and vulnerability. Her daughter discovered the scam when her mother confessed—after scammers told her not to tell anyone. The bank is now reviewing the transaction, and Cincinnati police are investigating, seeking a suspect described as a man in a suit, with dark hair and a facial mole, driving a black sedan. The family is urging everyone to talk to elderly loved ones about scams and to always verify urgent requests with trusted family members before acting.
