Police call them "transient criminals." They are extremely well organized and specialize in perpetrating scams and frauds. Because these criminals are constantly on the move, they're difficult to catch. How They Operate: Transient criminals usually work in pairs, sometimes in larger groups. One member of the team will use a ruse to distract their victim: posing as a utility or construction worker; feigning illness; asking to leave a package or message for a neighbor, anything to draw the victim's attention away as their partner enters the home to rob it. Choosing Their Targets: Transient criminals operate in broad daylight and specifically target senior citizens because seniors are often: • home alone during the day, • likely to keep money and/or valuables at home • less physically intimidating • more trusting by nature • less likely to report the crime Typically, transient criminals are careful not to ransack the premises when searching for valuables, so their crimes aren't always noticed immediately. That gives them a head-start in moving on to their next victim. Also, transient criminals often disguise their vehicles with fake or obscured license plates or magnetic commercial plaques that can be removed easily. For these reasons, apprehension is difficult. How to Stop Them: Senior victims may be reluctant to report these crimes because they're embarrassed or afraid someone will question their ability to remain independent. That's understandable but, because these criminals move so quickly and are difficult to identify, police depend on timely reporting and shared information to catch them. No one likes being victimized, however, the best revenge may be in knowing you were instrumental in keeping someone else from experiencing the same fate. Report the crime. Trust your instincts and stay safe out there! – Victor Rotolo 502 U.S. 22 Lebanon, NJ 08833 908∙534∙7900 www.KearnsRotoloLaw.com Tony Kearns and Vic Rotolo Working Together to Protect What's Important to You
