Scammers take aim at aging population – Bostonglobe.com

Posted on January 6, 2014 by Kendra Cooper

Kay Lazar’s article “Scammers Take Aim at Aging Population” explains the lack of training in financial exploitation by Massachusetts Elder Protective Services investigators and the soon-to-be released report by the MA Legislature’s Special Commission investigating Elder Protective Services. The article also raises questions about the use and validity of the Mini Mental State Exam (MMSE) which the courts heavily rely upon to evaluate competency.
