Oh Shit!

So, Our Monday visit to mama’s went well. In particular, my DH is now able to pay her bills, with her consent. I was able to remove another 100+ charity, and other envelopes from her home, process them through catalogchoice.com, or make direct phone calls in order to reduce the influx of money requests. Indeed, when she brought in her mail that day, it was five charity requests. I made sure to take them with us…

Now that my DH has access to her banking records, and is a data guy, it did not take him very long to find that she paid a contractor almost $16,000.00 to do nothing 11-months ago. And another contractor $3600.00 to do nothing 4-months ago. We are pursuing this. The details are too much to write…. Know that they are obviously fraudsters: No website, no outgoing voicemail, office is at a ‘shared worked space where they only have mail delivered, which they haven’t picked up for 8-months, parent company involved in lots of law suits… I have contacted the police, filed a fraud report with the state department of revenue, and will be talking with MIL’s banker tomorrow, who should file a fraud report… Social media flaming is also on my artillery list. A struggle in all this is my MIL will not remember any of these encounters 😢.
