Elderly Scammed out of Life Savings.
Donation protected
Hi, my name is Kelsey and I’m starting this fundraiser to try and raise money for my Fiancé's grandparents. His grandmother, AnneMarie, is 81 and was scammed out of her life savings on 2/28. She noticed an unfamiliar charge on her PayPal account and messaged “PayPal” stating she didn’t recognize the charge and thought it was fraud. “PayPal” called her stating that they would refund her account but they needed her bank account info. She gave this info over the phone thinking this was the real company. They called her a second time and told her the company made a big mistake and deposited eleven thousand into her account and she had to move fast. She didn’t have a car so they sent her an Uber to go to the bank and withdraw over ten thousand and wire it through an ATM at a local connivence store. Since she withdrew the money herself the transaction can’t be traced. Now their only savings account has been wiped completely and they are left with nothing. We are trying to raise some money to prevent them from foreclosing on their house. I know times are tough right now but even a share would help! Thank you all♥️
