Every single one. 400 200 400 250. >> A bedridden 66-year-old woman thought she could trust her caregiver with her life. Little did she know she had invited a predator into her home. Over $30,000 was being drained through a secret app the victim didn't even know existed. But this heartless betrayal was about to be exposed when police uncovered the caregivers's massive paper trail. >> Because of my condition. >> Sure. >> I hired a local Sierra Smith. >> Okay. >> She somehow managed to hack into my uh bank account. >> Okay. >> And stole over $10,000 from me. Oh, >> I got a call from the bank. The bank's the one that called me. Okay. >> And said, "This is what's going on." >> How long has Miss Sierra been around for you? >> I just hired her at the beginning of uh beginning of this year. >> So, you hired her early January, late December, whatever. >> Yes. >> As like a caretaker function, you know, clean the dishes, cook you food, something like that. >> She's supposed to clean uh twice a month, but she never got around to it. Did you ever have some kind of official contract with Miss Sierra or was it just kind of verbal thing? Hey, I'll pay you X amount, whatever. Yes. >> How much did you normally pay her? >> I I was supposed to pay her $600 per month. >> Per month. Do you do online banking at all? >> No. >> Okay. So, everything's you you still use a checkbook then? >> I don't trust the line. >> Trying to figure out how Miss Sierra would have taken your money if she just took one of your checks for your signature and said, "Yep, I'm cashing this $5,000 check." >> I think she took a whole a whole book of them. Okay. >> Are you able to get that that check number? The one that you paid Miss for her services. >> She just called me. >> Okay. >> It's the first month. I want my check. I want my $600. >> You got your phone with you by chance? Can you Can you just open it up? I want to make sure that you don't have Cash App on your phone. >> Sure. >> Uh, click that green one.

I hate to keep beating a dead horse, but you do not use cash app. >> You had no idea this was on your phone. >> And you wouldn't be sending these random payments to her because some of the amounts are so not small. They're like 50 bucks, 60 bucks. I probably wouldn't even my own bank account, I probably wouldn't notice that. But when she's sending $1,000, it's a lot different than $60. You know, I mean, if I had $1,000 missing, I'd notice that in our video, but $20 here, $60 there. I could totally see why you why you wouldn't have noticed that. I'm going to go talk to my buddies out here.

How much you think this lady >> here? Let me move away. I don't mean to bother. >> No, you're fine. >> You know, >> so they have an agreement. Even your daughter said it's about 600 bucks. That that makes sense. >> She she pays sometimes like CR will tell her like her electric or something's going off or like she's short on something and Mary will give it to her. >> Okay. >> How what's going on in the last couple of months? I don't know that like honestly I don't that's between her and Mary. But >> so what your daughter is doing is exploiting an elderly lady because she allegedly paid her $4,000 last night. >> $4,000 and let's say the cash app thing is real, which >> but you know this lady also is >> whole different subject. Well, >> if she really is using cash app, which I don't think she is, but let's say she is okay. on her bank statement >> because she I have when she broke her hip, right? >> Yeah. >> And I do lift an Uber. >> Explain whatever about the maybe Al Gold Narcotics if if this already told me about that. I don't know why she told me. >> I'm not talking about that. >> Okay. >> But um she broke her hip, right? Sure. >> So for two days, I drove Sierra around and her around for two days. So I said something to her. I said, "Mary," I said, "You know that driving you and Sierra around has cost me like $400." >> Okay. >> And she's like, "Oh, don't worry about it. I'll send it to you. I'll send it to Sierra and have her send it." How did she send it? Sierra cash out. >> So, she doesn't write a check. >> She does. Yes, she's she's wrote her checks, too. She And I told Sierra, "You need to stop letting her write checks because Mary will write a check >> to Sierra. I've brought Sierra over here. Picked it up. Sierra's deposited into her account and Mary turned around and stopped payment on it. >> Um, even the banks think there's there's weird things going on with the checks. >> Signatur honest honestly like I I don't know. Okay. So, >> is Sierra perfect? Probably not. Is it 100% on Sierra? I don't think so. >> Sure. >> Cuz I think part of it is her, too. cuz she does [ __ ] and then forgets that she does it or said she's going to do it and forgets that she said she's going to do it. >> Sure. >> Is Sierra guilty? Maybe. >> Well, I'll ask if I can look at her cash app and I guarantee she's going to send me >> if it shows exactly what that says, I'll let her out of hand. >> But there's there's cash app payments to a Jane Smith. I don't know who that is. She doesn't know who that is. >> Oh, I don't know. Yeah. And uh let me see if I can pull up when Sierra sent me the $400 the day because that's the day she sent it to Sierra and Sierra sent it to me. It's been a while, but it was when she got hurt. >> She sent something to Sierra. >> All right, dear. This is the time that maybe this will all go away. No. >> So, >> I don't want to do anything to her. I will not even ever come back here again if she doesn't want to ever see me again. >> I was just coming to check her mail to see if her checks came so she could write me a check for $600 because that's how much she pays me on the first. >> I could Which phone is it? >> Um either one. >> Either one you have. >> The black one's connected to my um hotspot on my red phone. >> Okay. I don't want we can open this. She wants to show you her. >> Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. Absolutely. She's saying she never had cash up before. >> She She doesn't know what cash up. Yeah. >> So, which one? >> So, here May 16th. >> Yeah. >> If you look maybe in Sierra's to me on May 16th, you'll see $400. >> Okay. So, that's what Sierra paid to you. >> That's what allegedly sent to her. I was there >> cuz we brought Mary from I picked Mary up from the rehab facility and brought her to Sierra's house. >> Okay. >> Well, this this month alone, January 1st, $1,200. January 3rd, $1,600. >> Well, I know she was telling Sierra she was going to help her get a car and stuff, and Sierra's been trying to get a car. >> I mean, I I'll ask her again. She is dead. Dead. I mean >> Oh, yeah. I know. That's how she That's how she was when she was stopping payment on the checks. >> Um, >> she she told Sierra, listen, I'm telling you, she wanted Sierra to get a bigger house so that they could move in together. But, like I said, if my daughter's guilty, she's guilty. >> Sure. >> Okay. Plain and simple. And my kids know, if you're wrong, you're wrong. I'm 51. >> I've dealt with you before. I used to love coming down here. >> I'm 51 years old and y'all never put cuffs in me. No, you're always taking people out for stealing beers. Right when I saw it, I remember you and I was like, "Oh, >> so this is your daughter?" >> That's my birth daughter. >> I don't think >> that's what I'm saying. No. And she used to work for me at 7-Eleven >> to be honest with you. >> Clear Water Road. >> Yeah. >> And we have seen her. >> And she used to work the one on um by the Largo High School. >> So she worked there longer than Clear Water Largo Road. >> Would you know who Jane Smith is? >> So on on her banks? um the bank side statements. >> This is what she wants to show you. And here this is the other phone. >> Okay. >> And I know she used to send her money for ask her to get >> How about $17,000 worth? >> 17,000. It's a lot of money to be sending for groceries or bills or whatever. >> $600 a month for 12 months cuz I'm looking at that. >> But no, but you have to keep in mind all that all that money is not just $600 that she pays. She cash out Sierra for I bought Sierra plenty of times to get cigarettes, to get beer. This thing drinks a case of beer a day. I saw a day. >> Yeah. But even over two years of $600 on the amount of $14,000, >> right? And Sierra's been doing it longer than 12 years. And that's not counting the groceries, the beer. >> Um, Door Dashing food, Door Dashing groceries, Door Dashing toiletries, Sierra going to get her toiletries, buying her groceries. It doesn't that doesn't include all that. Um, >> obviously not. >> So, for the for this month, the the 4,000 that doesn't include the $900 check that was written. Also, >> there's a check from January 1st of this month. I mean, why is I can't I can't understand why this lady would be paying her for 5 $5,000 a month for services or bills or I I can't figure that out. keep in mind, not eat them. Don't keep keep throwing a dollar amount. And I get it, okay? Like I said, if she's wrong, she's wrong, guys. I mean, it is what it is. Okay? >> But you guys don't understand how many times my daughter has to go get cigarettes and door dash her food. I mean, and I'm not talking just little bit of food. like she door dash her food from restaurants, not like just the grocery store. >> Okay. >> You know, so is some of it if she did maybe, but I know a lot of that ser honest stuff. >> I mean, some of it could definitely be beer, but anything that's not legit is illegal. Like, she can't do this. >> Oh, I understand. >> Okay. So, >> regardless of anything, she has to go down to the to the station. >> Okay. >> Is she going to arrest her? I I haven't read her history. >> Um, >> anything silly, anything really bad? >> I think she's got a battery on a old roommate. >> Okay. >> Other than that, >> so more than likely >> she doesn't have anything besides >> driving without a license. >> So, more than likely she'll get f or she'll be able to get bonded out. Whatever that amount is, should probably be back in tomorrow. However, this is done. Whatever whatever this is after today. >> Sound sound pretty good. I mean, even you said like, "Hey, she should have been staying away from >> I told her a long time ago cuz I knew this lady." >> Yeah, it's coming with you, honey. >> So, but anyway, so she's going down to station night or the jail station going down to jail night. And then I'm going to talk to her again and I'm going to I'm going to beat it like a dead horse. like is what is this? Is this real? Because >> that's for like the last >> um >> 4 years. >> I know. I've told them CR I told you stop dealing with her cuz she crazy and you may be wrong too. So I I'm just saying >> that's what I think. >> She's saying she never had >> I showed him where she cashed out you and then cashed at me. >> Yes.

So, it goes January 1st and September. >> Uhhuh. >> There's bunch of months that are not on here on Sierra's side. >> That's not on her phone. >> That is on her phone. Well, I know got a new phone. So, >> yeah. I don't know if you can like delete >> Oh, I don't think so. >> Cash up. >> I don't think so. >> Okay. All right. >> But I'm not that familiar. I don't use it a whole lot. So, >> all right. >> I mean, I use I mean, the only time I use cash app really is if I do a cash and they cash at me cuz I don't do lift. I don't do 7-Eleven anymore. So, >> all right. Well, that's what I got for you, dear. I'm sorry. >> You're going to take her phone? I'll take her phone. >> She wants both of our phones. Unfortunately, >> she literally pulled up like five. All right. >> I just got off the phone with her. She said she threatened to check. >> Why would she call? She said she was scared. She thought you were going to come beat her up. >> I said I was going to quit. >> I don't know why she was saying that. I never threatened her. I can show you the text messages. >> I got you. So, what is this for? We're just doing January. I know. I know there's years on here, but why is she paying you $1,200 on January? >> She wanted a new couch and I was going to go get her a new couch. She said a whole bunch of [ __ ] >> There ain't a new couch on there. >> I didn't get it yet. >> How about this $1,500? >> She said she wanted a new TV, a new phone. She hates her phone. >> Okay. Well, this got sent to you 30 days ago. >> Okay. And I'm going to get it. And then I had to put it back on her cash app cuz she said she didn't want it anymore. >> It didn't go back. Where? This is your history with her. >> No, not on her cash app. I'm sorry. I just >> How did you get it back from cash or something? >> You didn't You You pulled out $2,700 in cold hard cash and gave it to her. >> No. Okay. >> Some of half of that. No, only half of it. >> Like 1,200. >> Who is uh Jane Smith? That's the other I'm running into. >> James Smith. >> That that that's the other person that she's cashing apparently. >> You don't know who Jane Smith is? >> Okay. All right. Short of anything? Um, we got all our stuff. Whatever >> like a purse. Okay. >> So, today you got to you got to go down to jail. >> You can't explain any of this to me. >> What do you mean? I'm explaining it to you right now. She said she wanted a whole bunch of stuff and she said she wanted >> So you're telling me this lady paid you $17,000 through cash app? That is insane to me >> over years of time. >> And that's not just that's for everything she wants. >> So you're going to have to explain each and every sing one of these charges. Every single one. 400 200 400 250. >> Okay. Well, you're going you're going to jail today regardless of anything. But I think that on your phone, maybe the other one, right? >> That it's not just cuz she only has three transactions from Cash App sending money out on her phone that she may or may not have known. Maybe she's the best bull. She just lied to me. There's 10 10 transactions for Cash App on her uh bank statement this month. So, it makes me to believe that somebody has her banking information on their cash app and they're sending it to themselves. >> No, check my cash app. Check both cash apps. >> Basically, what happens is both these phones are being subpoenaed and seized and cash app is being subpoenaed to get all this information regardless of who's on the phone, if if a message was deleted or not, cash. >> Okay. She sends me money all the time. >> And if I ask her what's this $1,200 for, >> she's not going to tell you what it was for cuz it's illegal. >> Why? >> Cuz she shouldn't be doing it. >> Why? What? What? Why can't I not give him $1,200 to buy me some furniture? >> No, I'm talking about what she wanted. >> Why? I Well, if she wanted something illegal, that's a [ __ ] ton of illegal stuff. >> What is it that she wants? more trouble if they tell you >> you might give yourself a little saving gra if it's about like or something whatever but as far as I guarantee you cannot account for every single one of those transactions even in the slightest. >> I can. >> Okay, >> I can. She orders a beer every single day. A case of beer. >> I drink Bush Light. I personally drink Bush Light. Each of those cases are about $12. >> $20 on Instacart. >> Okay. So, >> check the Instacart. Check the Instacart. >> I don't have my phone with me, but >> check the Instacart. No, I'm saying check my Instacart. You can see all the deliveries were sent to her house. Every delivery was sent to her house yesterday. I ordered $150 worth of groceries. >> And I >> You don't know who Jane Smith is, though? >> Jane Smith is a person on Facebook. What is she cashapping that lady for? Thousands of dollars. >> She shouldn't be cashapping anybody >> besides me. I'm her caretaker. >> So if she typically writes you a check for 600, right? Like that that's your fee or whatever it is. >> She wrote me a check for 1,200. She wrote me a check for 600. She wrote me a bunch of checks. >> Okay. >> Cuz the bank's looking at that stuff and that's like federal stuff. So I don't know any of that stuff. I said, she said, "How much do you think I should write you for the whole month?" >> 600 bucks. >> No. >> Oh, for the food and the and whatnot. >> $1,200. >> Yes. She a carton of cigarettes a week. >> She smokes 305s. >> And those are $50 a carton. >> 200 bucks. >> Plus all the other stuff. >> Food. Eating. $70 worth of Chinese food. Yeah. Well, as long as you have a great explanation, that that's all that matters. But I I have a feeling once the the subpoena from Cash App comes back, it's going to tell a different story. But I don't know. >> You look at my Insta car. I've sent everything to her house. >> But just making sure you don't know who Jane Smith is. Has no ties to you. 0%. >> Jane Smith. >> Jane Smith. >> Look at my cash app. I don't use cash out all that much. What am I looking for? I don't even know where to go. >> I'm going down. Just go down. >> Right there. >> James. So, who is it? It's just this girl that I play this game. There's this game on Facebook where you have to load money onto it. >> Okay. >> And then she loads the game. >> So, what does she have anything to do with her? >> I have no idea. >> Okay. >> What game is it? >> It's Golden Dragon. >> Okay. >> I I don't I don't get it. But >> I don't either. Can I show you? >> What are you going to show me? >> Golden Dragon. >> Okay. And And she plays Golden Dragon with you and Jane. >> Why would she send money to Jane Smith? Anybody can name their cash app Jane Smith. I don't know. >> I saw the bank statement. >> I don't know who she's sending money to. >> How would she even know who Jane Smith is? >> She shouldn't know who Jane Smith. And Jane Smith shouldn't be in her Cash App either. I don't know who she sends money to on Cash App. I don't know. But either way, I'm kind of done.
