美国司法部的一份报告指出,虐待老年人欺诈在全国造成约20亿美元的财政损失,其驱动力是假冒、假投资、继承欺诈等骗局,这些骗局利用老年人的脆弱性、孤立和信任。 A U.S. Department of Justice report reveals that elder abuse fraud caused about $2 billion in financial losses nationwide, driven by scams like impersonation, fake investments, and inheritance fraud that exploit seniors' vulnerability, isolation, and trust. 司法部强调指出,犯罪者越来越多地将技术用于针对老年人,许多受害者由于羞耻或困惑而未能报案。 The DOJ highlights that perpetrators increasingly use technology to target older adults, with many victims failing to report crimes due to shame or confusion. 调查结果要求提高公众的认识,加强执法,改善机构间合作,扩大支助服务,以应对日益严重的危机,保护美国老年人免受金融剥削。 The findings call for greater public awareness, stronger enforcement, improved interagency cooperation, and expanded support services to combat the growing crisis and protect elderly Americans from financial exploitation.
