If your parents were taken in by this scam, first of all, call their credit card company and explain what happened-- for 2 reasons-- sometimes the charges will be reversed, but more importantly that further fraudulent charges are not applied to their card. "Sometimes" a product is actually delivered--refuse delivery, and refuse to pay--even if legal action is threatened. It's so important to spread the word of these disgusting scammers of the elderly, before our relatives, friends, and neighbors are cheated! That's exactly what the AARP organization was trying to do months ago when this started, but some folks, such as a few previous posters on this page won't help in the effort, or take advice, due to their irreversible and narrow minded political opinions. Independents, such as myself, Democrats, Republicans and others of various persuasions are being taken advantage of every day. Good luck--and spread the word!
