North Kingstown Police are searching for an Asian male suspect involved in a targeted tech support scam that resulted in the theft of thousands of dollars from an elderly woman. The incident occurred in the Glen Hill neighborhood of North Kingstown, Rhode Island. The victim, a woman with dementia, initially encountered a pop-up message on her computer claiming that police would arrive unless she dialed a specific number. After making the call, the victim allowed scammers to gain remote access to her computer and finances. Subsequently, the suspects appeared at her residence claiming to offer on-site technical assistance, though they lacked uniforms or official vehicles. Law enforcement was alerted after a bank teller noticed unusually large withdrawals by the victim and notified authorities. North Kingstown Police Captain John MacCoy Jr. stated that the crime was specifically targeted rather than random, noting that multiple cash drop-off points were involved. Authorities are urging the public to verify any urgent claims directly with banks to avoid panic-driven decisions. Tech support scams remain one of the most common forms of elder fraud, with Rhode Island seniors reporting millions in losses annually according to FBI data. The police department is actively seeking information regarding the Asian male suspect and encourages anyone with relevant observations from the time of the incident to come forward. This case highlights the evolving tactics of criminals who combine remote digital access with physical presence to exploit vulnerable individuals. Residents are reminded to be cautious of unsolicited offers of technical help and to verify the identity of anyone claiming to represent law enforcement or technical support services.
