I hope he is found and hospitalized soon, uncontrolled diabetes and what sounds like end stage renal disease probably impair his decision making.

Elderly/debilitated people will always be targets of those who prey.

Seems like most of the financial damage is done, so less likely to get scammed.

Ended up having to move my mother in law and sell her house;

After her husband died, a friendly neighbor saw this opportunity to forge a friendship.

After $500 in cash went missing we called the police and mother in law would not testify because the neighbor was always so "nice" to her.

Found some loan contracts written in crayon/marker that the neighbor had used to get $5000 that we know of. They were also storing motorcycles in her garage to hide from re-possession.

Moved her 40 miles away and now see her twice daily.

Dementia is a bitch, the woman was an ICU nurse for 50 years, she deserves better in her last years.
