An elderly couple in Erie, Pennsylvania, fell victim to a phishing scam, losing thousands of dollars. This incident is part of a broader trend of fraud targeting seniors, highlighted by the FBI Boston's warning about an increase in quit claim deed fraud. The FBI has charged two men from New Jersey for allegedly posing as government officials to defraud seven victims across five states, including Maine. Additionally, the FBI Pittsburgh reported the arrest of a 34-year-old man accused of scamming elderly individuals in the region. The FBI's warnings coincide with a civil case involving a Boston Water and Sewer Commission HR director, who is alleged to have conspired with relatives to defraud her elderly uncle of his home through similar deceptive practices.
