Any Ideas On Wire Fraud Issue
Hi Everyone,
A 94-year-old client recently sold her home in Rhode Island and moved into assisted living. My company helped move her in, and I just found out that she did not receive the proceeds from her closing after her property closed. She planned to use the proceeds from the closing to pay for her assisted living needs. She checked with her attorney, and they said that it was a wire fraud case, which sounds like it is popular in Rhode Island. I feel terrible for her as she is basically sitting in her room all day, not wanting to talk to anyone, and is not sure what will happen to her. Is there anything she can do? I don't have a lot of experience with wire fraud, so looking for any advice or help I can give to her.
Thank you in advance!
