Very

That's an understatement.

my mom also has memory loss and quite frankly probably dementia at this point and she gave away 250k (her last of the inheritence from her dead mother) to a random romance scammer as well within one year... Sigh

😂😂😂

It's an elderly thing. My grandma was in an assisted living facility before she passed and she was my responsibility to care for (which I enjoyed because they took care of me when I was a kid) and you could tell the age of the person by the thermostat lol. It was a joke with the people running the facility as well. It was in Texas, mid summer was brutal in that place. I am close to a heat stroke and they have a damn light sweater on, ridiculous

That's because this old farts blood runs cold. Sub-zero, listen to how he talks about his wife that died horrifically. I've seen people more upset about spilling a drink.

🤣🤣🤣🤣 that poor guy sweating bullets his shirt was saturated 😅

My grandpa won't turn the AC on. His house feels like a hot car and everyone hates it. He only turns it on if he's doing something or when he's feeling hot and it's weird because we'll be dying all day and then he turns it on at night.

Also, a large amount of money in a bank would also ensure that you have a representative to consult in that organization. My bank wants to keep me happy so I continue to keep my funds with them and I have a representative and backup in case one is not available. I don't live in the same area as my bank. If I lived or worked in another country, it would be even more important to have access to my money SAFELY all the time. It should take only a phone call or encrypted email situation with password to get access to money.

​@@islandgal500 yeahp, no doubt. At work we have jumped through hoops to help people who don't have much, if they had that amount it would be urgent and fixed as fast as possible

Not to mention there is internet banking and bank debit cards whereby you don’t have to go in person to your bank branch to get money out! He really fell for that?

I think the same thing about a lot of these situations. Some hotshot doing multimillion international contracting deals who doesn't have a lawyer, an accountant, a secretary, a business partner, or any friends or family to rely on. The only one who can help is you, the new love interest they've never met for a dinner date.

It doesn’t surprise me, most people only learn what millionaires supposedly do from TV shows, movies or celebrity news. Not realistic and won’t show the boring stuff.

@@nono86753Yep 😂

​@@cheery-hexTo hell with his kids, just let him send his life savings to scammers? What is wrong with you?

Definitely agree. His son is a bit of a loose cannon, but he probably learned it from Dad. A conservatorship is exactly what scam victims need. Some of them continue falling for repeated scams, even after they know the routine.

No. He hasn't grieved. He shut down. 54 years is a lifetime. His identity was her.

Don't judge how people deal with grief

He didn't care one bit about his wife. To think he spent so much money on a stranger, his wife probable went with out for her kids and him.

Idk. People deal with grief differently. Sometimes people say things "matter-of-factly" to keep themselves from becoming emotional.

@@hellooutthere8956I think I’ll go with his sons judgment about his fathers attitudes towards women. He knows him after all and you’ve never met the man

In time he will fall for another scam because he still thinks he is a 10. He deserves it 100%

😂

Very true

This old man deserves to be alone,not a nice man.

It facilitates it most of the time

Yeah somehow that connection (especially the "prosperity" Gospel lol) seems inclined to do the opposites of the Beatitudes.

Does the word church trigger you somehow?

Relax Karen, he’s like many are afraid to be embarrassed and the conservativeship will confirm this if he is exposed he is being taken advanatge of. Women are in the same position with make up and fashion. The sad retiring industry has women sucked into vanity. You’re throwing your money away to trends and trying to be cool and popular and sexy.

That's a cover for his sexting with the scammer I think.

"Ok sir, take care ✌️😃 have a good rest of life and bye!"

yes! My dad is well up in to his nineties. He doesn't know how to use a computer. After falling for the "Help me, Grandpa!" phone scam, someone is always with him, round the clock. We still have to remind him constantly not to answer the phone. He was always self-employed, so not answering the phone feels completely wrong to him. I'd estimate that 3 out of every 5 phone calls he gets are scammers.

Awesome comment 👏 👌 👍

I'd rather get food out of a dumpster than pay for it

What the hell was he at for the 12 days ffs

and blame it on "lonely", 2 weeks, lonely 😂

Poor man…. Not only has he been scammed out of $330,000 - worst yet - he’s a Trump supporter. He’s scammed either way. Sad all the way ‘round.

That’s what I thought! That’s what he deserves.

Not just that, it was a tragic , painful death. I think he is only imitating human emotions and mannerisms.

This guy and Biden are both idiots lol

It is an honor and a privilege to inherit your parent’s assets, NOT A RIGHT. That is his money. You are not entitled to your parent’s money. That is how you create “ain’t sh1t” sons and daughters. That being said,his son should have control of his finances so that he has money to care for himself in his last years. If not, he will spend it all. Dude is even trying to get his friends scammed in the process.

@@carrington2949 the son is doing that with the temporary conservatorship that’s why the old man is trying to sell his Porsche car and also tried to borrow 40k from his friend. His finances are under his son’s conservatorship to protect his financial assets and mental capacity to decide in deals.

@@carrington2949 says a lot about your character and his that you feel that way. It's not a right, but op was correct when she said he could have helped his FAMILY with that money rather than a scammer. You can't take it with you anyhow

@@carrington2949 When it was a widow (who was on this same love scam show) who spent money on a scammer, 75% of the comments were condemning her for 'spending her children's inheritance'.

Perhaps that is why he can afford to lose 330K. He must have had a huge life insurance policy. I can read people like books and I get the feeling it was not an accident. He was in the house too, even in the same bed. Somehow he made it out fine, she did not. Idk about the rest of you but I would go back in to save my cats never mind a person.

Absolutely I don't think he killed her but I think he allowed her to die and I don't think he really cared. The man was dating two weeks after his wife of over 50 years died in a house fire while he sat in the kitchen. If I did something like that to my husband (he's my ex-husband now we were married for 27 years and he cheated on me and left me but we have five grown children together) I should say ex-husband even right now I wouldn't allow him to die in a house fire because number one it's evil and number two we have children together and my children would hate me if I did that I don't know why this phone doesn't hate his father because of my father did this I would abandon him I would disown him I would be done with him! It wouldn't even be because of the money I couldn't care less about the money it would be because of his disrespect for my mother and his nasty attitude towards me and if he became homeless or hungry I'll send him to the homeless shelter and I'd send him to a soup kitchen. I wouldn't give him so much as a kernel of corn. He's EVIL

Hahahaha!

Grief can do strange things, but yes that’s not normal!

Not really, I was online dating the night my ex moved out. Then again I was done for a while.

You have to think about how assets were WAY easier to come by back when he was younger. He could've had a house or two that he bought for less than 20k, and 50 years later its valued at over 1 million.

Forreals. Better be quick about it too because old people are becoming more and more tech savvy these days.😂

I said this at work yesterday😂

I wanted to yt search: how to be a successful scammer🤣

They need to emphasize that this is probably a group of men in Puru or Nigeria.

@TawnyC_ I agree. I commented months ago that SCFneeds to state [esp to people 75+] “A criminal stole this woman’s pictures from the computer AND are pretending to be her.” “The pictures are of a real woman who is married and has kids. She is NOT who you are talking to on the computer. She is not whom you are sending money. Again, a CRIMINAL stole this woman’s pictures and is pretending to be her.” “You are talking to and sending $ to a CRIMINAL who is scamming you by pretending to be the person in the pictures.” Really wish SCF would explain it esp to this generation in simple, simple terms. It’s annoying when SCF uses terms like app, VPN, even the word ‘images’ instead of saying ‘pictures’, reverse image search. These folks don’t KNOW this stuff and it makes it more confusing. SCF needs to keep it simple. Simple words.

@@cUser691 I agree with you 👍

@@cUser691I agree with you too. Older folks aren’t familiar with these terms & just gloss over what they’re saying as if they understand what’s being said to them. SCF definitely needs to speak to these people with words they understand. I’ve seen this too often also & have thought the same way as you. Thanks for focusing on something more productive instead of the victim’s stupidity or politics.

@@DeeDeeDigsIt Right. I’m ‘in tech’ and I barely know some of these things [kidding] but SCF really need a list of things with translations. I might just need to send it to them so they can use inderstandable words for vulnerable senior who may be unaware. Examples SCF have used over the months to older people who shake their heads in acknowledgement when SCF ‘explains’ at the story’s end when you just KNOW they don’t know what SCF is talking about. I shake my head when SCF throw out terms to 75+ year olds or anyone else (!) unfamiliar with technologies and devices like: 1) VPN 2) IP address 3) VoIP phone 4) Photoshop [yes that needs simple explaining too] 5)Link 6) app 7) wallet [ yup, explain that one in simple terms] 8) AI [why would SCF throw this word out to an 84 yr old man. Why ? ] 9) Reverse image search I could go on but we agree:Use words they understand. Start with saying the word “computer”, phone”, “pictures” [as opposed to “images”] Feel free to add any terms SCF should simplify to non tech-savvy people and/or vulnerable seniors. The list might grow

Bushfire, apparently 😊

Pshhhhhhh, They aren't giving out punnai half your age for donations. Allen is no idiot, remember that. Besides if Blue's Clues investigated the fire, he may have found out it was not an accident after all. This guy is cold af and his story don't add up.

I wish I am the girl who accompany him

That means your dad is a good man, the same cannot be said from the douchebag in the video

Lets be honest his trophy wife was getting a little dated. he needed an upgrade to go with his trophy car. If he truly loved her he would not be looking two weeks after her death. It's crazy how all these men say they are lonely when they really mean horny.

actually that is pretty normal, nothing to brag about.what does an 80 year old want? peace and quiet in health. Not sex or relationships.

Bro, my mum lost my dad to cancer in 1989, after 23 years of marriage. She remained a proud widow, faithful to his memory, right to the very day she passed herself, 23 years later in 2012. Devotion is too weak a term to describe this....

Exactly 😂 A soon as he says house fire alarm bells were ringing. He is definitely guilty of his wife’s death 😅

I said the same!

Wicked thoughts from wicked people!

Yeah because the injury effected him. All that other crap is other peoples problems, not Allen's. He had a nice Nigerian boyfriend before scamfish came in and ruined it all. They would look cute together in his Porsche with the top off.

He'd using that to save face, so he can spread the blame of this fiasco and still somehow come out as a victimz

One million percent correct.

I know lots of older men who were dating literally weeks after their wife had died, none of them cheated on their wives. They simply can’t be alone without female companionship. Internet dating is full of men who are taken advantage of by real women, simply because the men can’t live alone.

Grief makes people act in really strange ways and some people totally disconnect from their feelings in order to cope. It’s not common, but it’s not unheard of.
