Our father recently died of a cancerous gliosarcoma brain tumor. After his death, we began to looking at his credit card expenses and noticed a $26.99 monthly AOL charge. We were surprised because he hadn't used an aol account/email address in decades. Looking back as far as we could at his credit card statements, we realize that he's been paying on this AOL account for over 20 YEARS!! $$25 x 12 x 20 = $6000!!
SHAME on AOL for Preying on the Elderly and not closing inactive accounts that bring in a steady stream of $$revenue. It's all about $$$. It's all about corporate greed. Meanwhile his widow has atleast $6000 less in her estate than she would have if AOL closed its inactive accounts. Cha ching.. Cha ching. $$ Talk about elderly abuse. Slow clap for AOL = Abusers of the ELderly = Ginormous Corporate Thieves!!
