Really That Easy....

Seriously, why do the older folks give up their money that easy?

Police Station Fraud; Grand Theft 6:39 p.m. Police said "…and elderly female…" from Laguna Beach had been flimflammed out of $10,000, which she'd withdrawn from her bank downtown. The woman had met a welldressed couple in a parking lot after shopping in Irvine. Police said the man had presented an "elaborate scheme" about having inherited a significant amount of money that required him to send $10,000 in cash to Africa as a show of good faith. He offered the victim a large return for her help and rode to Laguna with her so that she could go to the bank. She handed over the cash and waited in her car for their return from wiring the funds.
