Got information over telephone under false pretenses - wrote checks on personal bank account

My elderly mother-in-law gave information over the phone to a man offering an insurance policy that would allow her to use any doctor, any clinic, any hospital, etc. He was to show up to get her signature on the policy on Monday. He never came. Shortly thereafter he began to draw checks in the amount of $399.00 from her bank.

After several of these (4 I believe) Wells Fargo Bank closed her account and made her go to another bank. For a couple of years she had no further withdrawals from the new bank. Then this November another check for $399.00 was drawn on her account. When I spotted it on her bank statement I called and talked to someone at the bank who gave me a telelphone number to call. It was an answering service who told me this client had cancelled their account with them. I reported this to the bank and was told to look up "Landmark Clearning". I Googled this site and found many reports of similar scamming - from all parts of the country.

I previously had sent this information to the Attorney General's Senior Fraud Division, the Harris County District Attorney, an investigative reporter for a local Houston TV news channel, etc., and never received any response from them. Wells Fargo Bank was not willing to pursue this as fraud. I am closing her account in the new bank in Houston and will be handling all affairs out of a private account. Marlene San Antonio, Tx.
