While much has been written about seniors’ “exaggerated” level of fear, a better understanding is required as to why the elderly tend to be more fearful than other age groups. Is this higher fear level due to feelings of physical vulnerability or social isolation? Understanding the sources of this fear can contribute to the development of appropriate interventions as fear itself can isolate seniors, produce mental health issues, and make seniors more vulnerable to financial exploitation.
Be an educated consumer. Fraud is the Number 1 crime against seniors. If you have been defrauded, you may not necessarily be aware that you are a victim. The con artist will take your money and give you little or nothing in return. Remember, if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

Exploitation of the elderly has always existed and only in the past few decades has it been recognized as an epidemic as more tragic stories surface into the spotlight.
The three principal areas of concern for seniors, identified in this review, are:
• Financial crimes by strangers. A variety of fraudulent schemes fall in this category, including Ponzi schemes (investment), false promises of prizes, aggressive telemarketing, schemes involving health products, and fraudulent home repairs.
• Crime and abuse by relatives and caregivers. This includes the full range of crime and abuse, including physical, emotional, and sexual abuse, as well as financial exploitation and neglect. There is also the undue exercise of control, such as isolating the senior from others or interfering with his or her participation in religious services. This report covered the signs of each type of abuse.
• Crime and abuse in institutional settings. Here again, there is the full range of abuse and, in particular, physical, sexual, and emotional abuse, as well as systemic abuse.
Much remains to be learned about the prevalence of crimes against Canadian seniors. If you feel that a crime is being committed towards any elderly person, CALL or SUBMIT a TIP anonymously

Who runs Crime Stoppers? Crime Stoppers is NOT a police program. Crime Stoppers is run by a citizen volunteer Board of Directors Board comprised of a group of concerned citizens. The Board administers the fund for reward payments and is responsible for fundraising efforts. Money raised by the Board comes from community events and sponsorship by local citizens and businesses.

Our tipster payout system meets the criteria established by the Ontario Association of Crime Stoppers and Crime Stoppers International. A civilian coordinator takes the tipster’s anonymous call or web tip and documents the details of the call, giving the caller only a confidential code number. Callers are instructed to call the Crime Stoppers tip line back with their code number the day after the monthly board meeting when the reward amount is determined. As well, the caller is then instructed as to how, when and where to pick up their cash reward; always at a confidential drop point.
