Kathy Ruffner-Linn: Misplaced blame
Regarding the June 7 Point of View piece about how a grandma “allowed” herself to be scammed: And not one word about where the real blame lies – with the scammers! A little bit of agism there? Yes, it’s a common scam used on grandparents, but anyone can fall for a scam. I agree. Spread the word, but don’t blame Grandma!
