As a wise man once said, some people rob you with a six-gun and some people rob you with a fountain pen. I hope there's a special subdivision in hell for people who rob old ladies that way. I've seen them robbed by "mechanics", "contractors", "landscapers" (especially tree removers), and worst of all by "financial planners". The thieves are usually hard to catch because their victims are embarassed or don't even know they've been gypped, and the thieves move on as soon as they start to get noticed.
