Today is 'World Elder Abuse Awareness' day. For the past decade, I've raised awareness about the financial abuse of older people. My focus has been on 'early inheritance syndrome'. Research shows that older women are most at risk of financial elder abuse. https://t.co/L7U38lFPKw

It's Elder Abuse Awareness Day. Not much in the media; why should we care, it only impacts over 600,000 older people? Emotional manipulation and taking financial advantage are hidden but common forms that are impacting my family. Hard to get help.
