Former Car Salesman Charged with Exploitation of Elderly Woman

Police in May arrested a man for assuming responsibility and care for a 92-year-old woman and exploiting her financials, according to court reports.

Twenty-six-year-old, Taylor Few waived his Preliminary Hearing this morning to the felony charge of exploitation of a vulnerable adult.

Court papers say Few be-friended the woman while working as a salesman at White’s Mountain Motors.

Papers continue to show, through the span of nine months, Few gained over $165,000 from thirteen different checks from the woman.

An additional $17,000 was withdrawn in cash from the woman’s accounts, with no explanation for the withdraws.

Through the course of the investigation, court papers detail how Few assisted the woman in buying, trading and buying other vehicles from Whites for the woman, where Few received $3,000 in commissions.

Papers say, Few dodged police questions, yet he did say he planned to pay the woman back, after she had given him money for his business once his business started “doing good.”

Few is currently out on bond waiting for his District Court hearing in the next few weeks.

  1. I know this kind of fraud is rampant in Florida. You'd think the elderly wouldn't fall for it, but I think it's the very scheme they do fall for.
