DESANTIS SIGNS BILL TO PROTECT SENIORS FROM SCAMS

A new law may protect seniors from getting scammed. Governor Ron DeSantis signed a bill yesterday that allows banks to delay a transaction if an employee thinks a senior may be getting exploited. St. Petersburg State Senator Darryl Rouson sponsored SB 556. He says it's necessary because many people are at increased risk of financial exploitation because of their age or disability. The new law takes effect on January 1st.
