ever-elder-fraud-crackdown
The Justice Department on Thursday said it charged more than 225
individuals in the last year in connection with fraudulent scams that
target elder Americans ages 60 and older.
Attorney General William Barr, in his first press conference as the
nations chief law enforcement officer, touted the departments successes
in its largest-ever nationwide crackdown on schemes that prey upon our
senior citizens.
This is despicable. ... It is despicable because the people involved are
vulnerable, Barr said Thursday, adding that the Justice Department will
prosecute an all-out attack on this kind of crime.
The cases identified by the Justice Department, in a joint effort with the
FBI, targeted Americans age 60 and older, collected more than three-
quarters of a billion dollars, and involved more than 2 million
victimsincluding former CIA Director and FBI Director William Webster.
Webster, 90, and the only individual to lead both the FBI and the Central
Intelligence Agency, was targeted in a fraud scheme that, if successful,
would have forced him to send $50,000 to the fraudster.
I am intensely conscious as what it means to be older and to be
potentially a victim, Webster said Thursday, explaining the incident.
Webster was contacted by a man with a Jamaican accent who told him he had
won tens of millions of dollarsbut first, needed to send $50,000 to cover
the taxes on his Mega-Million lottery prize. Webster, in turn, called the
man back the next day, in a reverse operation, with the FBI and Justice
Department listening in.
Our elder fellow citizens deserve our support and our protection,
Webster said Thursday. Were going to do everything we can to make sure
they are not defrauded and that they are protected.
Justice Department officials said the scams focus on people from across
the nation. Officials also said they are committed to working to identify
the money stolen from victims, and ways to return it to them.

Donald J. Trump, 304 electoral votes to 227, defeated compulsive liar in
denial Hillary Rodham Clinton on December 19th, 2016. The clown car
parade of the democrat party ran out of gas and got run over by a Trump
truck.
Congratulations President Trump. Thank you for cleaning up the disaster
of the Obama presidency.
Under Barack Obama's leadership, the United States of America became the
The World According To Garp.
ObamaCare is a total 100% failure and no lie that can be put forth by its
supporters can dispute that.
Obama jobs, the result of ObamaCare. 12-15 working hours a week at minimum
wage, no benefits and the primary revenue stream for ObamaCare. It can't
be funded with money people don't have, yet liberals lie about how great
it is.
Obama increased total debt from $10 trillion to $20 trillion in the eight
years he was in office, and sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood queer
liberal democrat donors.
