Con artists use a variety of ways to get the hard-earned savings of seniors, fraud investigators say. Being aware of the warning signs is the best line of defense, especially for those Medicare recipients who may feel pressured to decide about next year’s coverage for their health care and prescription drugs. Federal officials rely on Medicare recipients to fight against healthcare fraud in the system. Medicare and Medicaid lose billions of dollars each year to scam artists. How do people know if they need to change their Medicare plans? People in a Medicare health or prescription drug plan should review the “Evidence of Coverage” and “Annual Notice of Change” they receive in the mail from their plans for October. If their plans are changing for 2017, seniors and other eligible Medicare recipients should verify that their plan will meet their medical needs. Medicare enrollees who wish to remain in their current plan will be automatically reenrolled in the plan if they do nothing. Sid Kirchmeimer, author of “Scam-Proof Your Life,” calls open enrollment for Medicare a “prime time for unscrupulous salesmen to pressure you to buy supplemental insurance products that will supposedly save you thousands.” His advice is compare medigap policies at medicare.gov before buying a supplement policy or signing anything. Relatives and friends have a role to play in combatting this seasonal fraud. Talk with a relative, neighbor or friend who lives alone about the phone fraud regarding their Medicare coverage. Seniors are most at risk of scams because they’re polite and will listen to a crook’s sales pitch. Medicare enrollment opens the door for con artists. The quickest way to slam it in their faces is with a firm “no thanks” and then hang up the phone. You can give away this advice, just make sure to keep your personal information private. • Stolen vehicle: ‘00 Mercedes Benz CL500 Auto Theft-All 9/29/2016 3:48 PM 2900 BLOCK ROLLING HILLS ROAD Stolen vehicle: ‘01 Audi A4 Burglary-Auto 9/29/2016 3:00:00 PM 4200 BLOCK 176TH ST Suspect(s) enters vehicle by unknown means and takes property; GPS, registration, paperwork Battery-Simple 9/29/2016 1:16:00 PM 4000 BLOCK 226TH ST Suspect spits in victim’s face before punching her in the face Auto Theft-All 9/29/2016 6:47 AM 20000 BLOCK BERNIST AVE Stolen vehicle: ‘06 Ford P/U Auto Theft-All 9/29/2016 3:30:00 AM 2800 BLOCK 235TH ST Stolen vehicle: ‘95 Honda Civic Theft 9/28/2016 9:00:00 PM 3600 BLOCK PACIFIC COAST HWY Suspect(s) enters open business and takes property from display/ cell phone Burglary-Auto 9/28/2016 8:00:00 PM 3300 BLOCK LOMITA BLVD Suspect(s) enters unlocked vehicle and takes property; purse Theft 9/28/2016 6:50:00 PM 3400 BLOCK CARSON ST Suspect(s) takes property off of parked vehicle; tailgate Burglary-Auto 9/28/2016 5:45:00 PM 21300 BLOCK HAWTHORNE BLVD Suspect(s) forces open window for entry and takes property; third row seats, purse Vandalism 9/28/2016 3:10:00 PM 5100 BLOCK CALLE DE RICARDO Suspect(s) tags wall, light poles, bench, signs, sidewalks, trashcan at location Auto Theft-All 9/28/2016 1:30:00 PM 5500 BLOCK 190TH ST Stolen vehicle: ‘15 Aprilia M/C Auto Theft-All 9/28/2016 8:29 AM PRAIRIE AVE & 178TH ST Stolen vehicle: ‘93 Acura Legend Burglary-Auto 9/28/2016 5:25:00 AM 21700 BLOCK DEL AMO CIR E Suspect(s) smashes window for entry and takes property; purse Vandalism 9/27/2016 11:00:00 PM 2200 BLOCK 235TH ST Suspect(s) uses a vehicle to ram three gates at location Vandalism 9/27/2016 11:00:00 PM 3400 BLOCK CARSON ST Suspect(s) punctures tires on victim’s two parked vehicles Burglary-Residential 9/27/2016 9:00:00 PM 20500 BLOCK PALM WAY Suspect(s) enters unlocked residence and takes property; cell phones, wallets Theft 9/27/2016 7:00:00 PM 17300 BLOCK WILTON PL Suspect(s) takes property off of parked vehicle/ tailgate Theft 9/27/2016 12:50 PM 300 BLOCK CAMINO DE LAS COLINAS Suspect(s) takes property from front porch; delivered parcel Vandalism 9/27/2016 9:16 AM 2100 BLOCK ARTESIA BLVD Suspect(s) smashes glass door; no entry, no loss C e r t i f i e d a n d L i c e n s e d P r o f e s s i o n a l s handyman Bob Boice Quality Work Since 1966 Home Repairs Carpentry/Painting - Ceramic Tile/Masonry Repairs - Most Other Repairs and Improvements - Small Jobs O.K.! - Please no plumbing calls. 310-316-3435 Lic#817498 B.H.I.C.
