Hi Claire, What a terrible thing to have happened. When my gran died my Grandad had a full time live in carer. We saw him almost every day but she wheedled her way round him Nobody, not even the neighbours liked her, only him. When he died after 2 years of knowing her he left everything to her. She didn't even ask my Mum and Dad if they wanted any mementoes, photos etc. Despite saying she loved all Jacks family we never ever saw her again. A hard lesson to learn. Thinking of you Linda (((HUGS)))

It will be really interesting to see what happens after he's arrested!! What I find interesting is that if he was a 'carer' for your Mum how could he claim to be unemployed?? How did he get her details?? There's something incredibly fishy about the whole set-up (re- him) - maybe when the Police investigate further they'll find that this isn't the first time he's done something like this!! I really hope & pray your children get what their Gran wanted them to have & that you get closure. Sending you lots of (((((hugs))))). Ails

Claire Words fail me - what a rotten egg to put it politely. Lets hope he gets his just deserts - I would feel like going round and throttling the sad *** - makes you think he has done it all before. Hope your mom gets her last wish and her grandchildren get their money. Love and Hugs to you all. Mary xx

Hi all Firstly thanks for all your help and support I have been overwhelmed !!!!!!!!!!!!! Now for the updated update.......... Police just left here , seems powers that be have vetoed investigation as victim is not alive and scummy thief will not fess up !!!!!!!!!! The local Bobby who fought for it is gutted and bless him he feels that he has let us all down. Have assured him this is not so and what he achieved was better than nothing. Scum has fessed up to borrowing £ 800 off mum and has offered to pay it back, told police he'd better I suppose 8% of the total is better than nothing. Now to deal with the Post Office Brother in London has said he will deal with this for me cos its got to the point now where I've had so much stuffing kicked out of me that I've got none left to give and GP is starting to worry threatening me with happy pills etc. But like I always say there's always somebody out there worse off and hopefully what has gone on here will make people more wary and not end up in this situation. Once again thanks for your help & support its very much appreciated Take Care Live long & prosper Claire xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

There is nothing more loathsome or dispicable than taking advantage of our elders!!!! Does no-one have any respect anymore!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Im with Brian on this one I'd love some 'quality time' with him too!!! I might be wittle but i tell ya I'd give it a good go!! keep ya chin up sweetheart. Who knows maybe someone knows of a loophole in the law that can help.... i certainly hope so!!!

Well, I hope he does pay that amount back Claire, and that your brother sorts out the Post Office so you get the rest of the money due to your young people. They sure as heck owe you that, they stuffed up by letting him draw out the money every day without querying it. I am sure your lovely bobby will watch this lowlife like a hawk from now on, and probably most of the people who know about this will shun him too. Time to take care of yourself and grieve for your mum as you should have been able to at the time. Liz

Joy - it IS legal for an Uncle to be shacking-up with his neice IF she is only a neice by marriage (ie not blood related). Claire - sending you (((hugs))) - you are SOOOOO positive!! Ails
