I fought, and beat a scammer who had gotten my grandfather to sign a durable power of attorney and proceeded to put himself as primary on the bank account and prepared to sell the house. The DPOA was quickly revoked.
Multnomah County APS got involved, and set up a fiduciary, as I was told was voluntary, only to counter the scammer. APS requested copies of wills, property deeds, stocks, bonds, all sorts of financial documents which I found and supplied. I understood from APS, that grandfather did not need to stay in a care center for medical needs, so I assumed he could come home.
I've heard medical assessments from practically everybody BUT A DOCTOR, but I understand he takes a bus to dialysis 3 times a week by himself. He is not in any kind of protective custody, or a ward of any kind, and it is on record in February that he is not incompetent---but nobody can give me one reason why he can't be home, I'm told that he'll never come home and his home will be sold (against his wishes.
I thought, and was clearly led to believe that I was assisting APS to stop a scammer and bring this man home--- today I find out that was apparently never their intention. I feel I was misled to get the financial information they wanted but didn't have. Something terribly wrong here. We need BIG help against Pat Piazza.
