Kooki The Clown Defrauds 90 Year Old

Kooki the Clown has been arrested in California after duping a 90 year old woman out of her life savings:

"The woman's husband passed away in 2002. She (Williams-Thompson) gained power of attorney soon after that.

She said that the victim and her bank noticed that Williams-Thompson appeared to be "making unusual use" of the victim's money. According to a police press release, Williams-Thompson used the victim's money to buy homes, vehicles, a fifth-wheel trailer and more.

Cahall said the elderly need to be on the lookout for someone trying to defraud them.

The first piece of advice I would give the elderly is to avoid giving the power of attorney to anyone that has a big red nose, extra long shoes, and has an unusual knack for making balloon animals. Also, if they ask to see your wallet and then return it empty, that isn't magic, that's theft.

You may want to write that down.

Abracadabra, you're broke!
