Financial exploitation

Financial exploitation occurs when a trusted person takes advantage of an incapacitated person. Unfortunately, the perpetrator may be an agent under a power of attorney or a guardian who has the authority to handle the person's money. The best preventive measures are to be sure that you only give the power to handle your  money to someone that you can really trust and to make sure that you inform others of your wishes and intentions so they can keep a watchful eye. Common signs of financial exploitation are:

• Money or property seems to be missing.
• Sudden changes in spending or saving. 
• A relative or caregiver who keeps someone from having visitors or phone calls and does not let let the person speak for them self.
