摘要

最近的研究表明，由于社会隔离、经济富裕、精神失常、与技术的斗争以及认知障碍，老年人更容易受到诈骗。在本报告中，我们介绍了一位 73 岁老人的病例，他在 8 年时间里成为多个骗局的受害者，损失超过 10 万美元。我们还讨论了在门诊环境中管理此类患者的方法。易受诈骗被认为是老龄化社会福祉面临的一个日益严重的威胁。问题的复杂性和可用研究的稀缺性使临床医生在处理此类病例时面临挑战。

Scam Susceptibility: Thoughts on How to Initially Approach and Manage Patients in a Geriatric Psychiatry Setting.

Recent studies have demonstrated that older adults are more vulnerable to scams because of social isolation, economic affluence, mental disorders, struggles with technology, and cognitive impairments. In this report, we present the case of a 73-year-old man who fell victim to multiple scams over 8 years, leading to a loss of more than $100,000. We also discuss approaches to managing such patients in the outpatient setting. Susceptibility to scams is considered an increasing threat to the well-being of aging societies. The complexity of the problem and the scarcity of available studies make the management of such cases challenging for clinicians.
