Children should consciously tell the elderly about some cases they saw in newspapers and TV, so that they can understand these common scams in case they encounter similar situations in the future.

2. Pay more attention to the elderly.

Many swindlers just use their children's lack of care for the elderly to play the family card. Because of loneliness, the elderly are easily deceived by the honeyed words of swindlers to pay their money. Therefore, children should always go home to accompany the elderly, call them more if they have nothing to do, and their spiritual world will be satisfied, and the elderly will not be easily confused by the tricks of swindlers.

3. deposit money in the bank.

It is necessary to persuade the elderly to keep most of their money in the bank instead of at home, leaving only some scattered money around, preferably with the help of their children, who also set the password. If the swindler has successfully defrauded the trust of the old man, but because he doesn't have that much money at hand and the password of the bank passbook, he must call his children to withdraw money, so that the children can know what happened at the first time and prevent the old man from falling into the trap.

4. Don't be greedy.

Old people always spend money carefully, and people will have a greedy mentality more or less. Many scams are aimed at this feature, such as the typical trick of "dropping money and picking up money". Therefore, children should remind the elderly from time to time that there will be no pies in the sky. It's very likely that you think it's cheaper, but in fact you have to pay a higher price.

5. Find someone to discuss things.

Many swindlers like to scare old people with their phones, saying that their phones are used by criminals to do illegal things and so on. First, they scared the old people to death, and then pretended to be very kind and said that as long as they paid, they could break the money and avoid disaster. Finally, they will definitely add such nonsense as "Don't tell anyone, especially your family, or you will be implicated".

If you really listen to the liar and stuff everything into your stomach, you will fall into their trap. When you can't tell the truth, you must make a phone call to ask your children or tell your neighbors so that everyone can discuss it with you. People always ignore many details when they are in a panic, let alone the elderly. If you have someone else's analysis, you can find many doubts about the liar and you won't be deceived.

6. Don't listen to "child care".

When the old man is old, it is inevitable that there will be such problems. Never listen to some strangers, such as a doctor who specializes in incurable diseases and a medicine bag who can cure all diseases. Those people seem to have good intentions, but in fact they are "childcare" and use the wishes of the elderly to cheat.

Old people must believe in science. If that magic doctor, that medicine is really so effective, why don't regular hospitals hire him and pharmacies don't sell him? Ask a few more why and the lie will be broken.
