These people can target the elderly, because many elderly children are not around to accompany the elderly to live independently. And the elderly with the outside world contact is relatively small, many of them do not know how the development of society, so it is easy to be some people's care to cheat. Some people take advantage of the elderly living alone a state, they will deliberately care about the elderly, to the elderly to buy some things, warmth, to gain the trust of the elderly. Then the next step after the elderly they will give the elderly checkups, or give the elderly money and other ways to attract the attention of the elderly.
It is precisely because children are often not able to be with the elderly that they have many opportunities to be deceived by others. Because the deceived generally know that the elderly are actually lonely inside, they will seize this mentality of the elderly and succeed in occupying their hearts. The older person will then trust them, let their guard down, and give up their money to pay for the scammer. Many times the elderly only realize they have been cheated after the fact, but at the time, it is more the psychological dependence and the psychological warmth that makes them let their guard down and trust these people.
A few days ago, I also saw a girl in the square who cared for two old people and brought them milk to drink. Cheat a little bit of money, not affect the life of the elderly that's okay, do not cheat people to the family, their whole family will have to come to you. So I think we still need to do the right thing, should not be in the form of cheating the elderly to make them suffer.
The only thing that can really make the elderly avoid these traps is to say that as children more care for their parents as well as more for their parents to consider all aspects of life and thought and spirit, so that the parents of those completely will feel happy and complete. Parents no longer believe in others, only believe in their own children, this time will not be cheated by outsiders.
