Pity the seniors - scammer's target (favorite)

Every minute a sucker is born (PT Barnaum). Let us not be one





An acquaintance who is senior like me told me that her bank is texting her to get a million peso loan.  That is strange because a senior citizen like me all ready lacks the capacity to contract an obligation.  So that the mandatory retirement is at 65 because of the declining cognitive function as one ages.

I know I am targetted for romantic scams by alleged lady soldiers in war torn country:   Syria,  Yemen.  The narrative is the same:   they will visit thte Philippines after the tour of duty and will seek advice on investment.  And when the investment is there (the playbook of Nigerian scam is introduced)

Pity the seniors.  Spare us from the scam.

I learned and sadly that somebody is rich in our town gypped a senior couple of their land.  They paid the CGT and had the property transferred  to the name of the rich kababayan?!
