Elder Fraud

At Don Davis & Associates we are passionate about seeking out and stopping those who commit financial fraud against vulnerable adults.  Financial elder abuse is a crime and It’s imperative to the prosecution of these cases that an immediate and thorough investigation be conducted.  Our investigators will passionately, “and in a timely manner”, investigate and assist prosecutors in making sure these shameless criminals go to jail.

Telemarketing fraud robs U.S. citizens of at least $40 billion annually, according to Congressional estimates, and surveys by the American Association of Retired Persons indicate that over half of those victims are age 50 or older. The National Consumers League, the oldest nonprofit consumer organization in the United States, was established in 1899 to promote and protect consumers' social and economic interests. In light of the devastating emotional and financial impact of telemarketing fraud on seniors, NCL studied the problem in a comprehensive manner and developed new strategies for combating it.

How can I help?
Watch out for your elderly relatives, friends and neighbors. If you suspect abuse call your local adult protective services or law enforcement. If your gut feeling is that an elderly person is being taken advantage of, chances are you may be right.  It's up to you to convey your suspicions to authorities. 

Don Davis & Associates is available for hire to investigate perpetrators of fraud. Such investigations are not limited to, but includes placing them under surveillance, conducting interviews, and gathering time-sensitive evidence to prevent them from further harming their victims. Unfortunately many law enforcement agencies and courts lack the funds to hire the level of investigators needed to address this most harmful and disturbing crime. You can make a difference.


How can I help prevent elder abuse?
In addition to being available for hire on specific matters, we're open to receiving contributions or grants to continue assisting victims of any type of elder fraud abuse. Monies pay for investigations to track and gather evidence on perpetrators which assists prosecutors in putting them behind bars so they can't continue harming families.
