This is an old story: Scamsters target older folks because they are trusting — and vulnerable.

It doesn’t have to be that way if “trusted contacts” are involved. They are designated third parties who can screen scams before they happen.

A trusted contact may be a family member, attorney, accountant or another third-party that respects the investor’s privacy and understands how to handle the responsibility.
