When she approached the man about it he hung up 4 times after he got his money. He knew what he was doing and took liberty of the situation to take her for what he could get out of the situation of her being sick when she told him she was and son had power of attorney.

Mr. Stone is right. You should also contact the Elder Abuse unit of your District Attorney's Office. The situation you describe is clearly elder financial abuse, which is a crime.
