Hi, to make make a long story short my father fell victim to two scams over the past 5 years resulting in at least $17,000 in gift card scams.
The first, about $15,000 was someone reaching out promising him $100,000 if he sent Apple gift cards. The gift cards were as much as $500 and up to $2000 in a single day.
The second, I suspect from the same scam shop started when the grant scam was no longer working on him. It evolved into a romance scam with someone impersonating a former high school girlfriend in need of help. He sent them about $2000
I have all of the gift cards documented in excel. I scanned them all into chronologically ordered copies. I saved all of the conversations from Facebook and text to chronological PDFs.
My question is how likely are the Medicaid people to consider these gifts with all of the documentation I have? My local office of aging said they may still consider them gifts even though he was obviously deceived.
Anyone have any info on this? Thank you!
