My 86 yr old mother has had a $369 electronic check written on her account from these people (tel. # 855-649-0679).  It is an ACH (Automated Clearing House) transaction so I had her go the bank and sign some forms to reverse the charge.  There is a time limit that ACH imposes so anyone who has this happens needs to immediately go to their bank and basically tell them this is a fraudulent charge.  Don't take no for an answer.

Also, do not think there is nothing you can do just because the elderly person gave the bank info to the scam artist.  If it is done by credit card it is even easier to dispute.  Make no mistake that this is elder fraud and you need to treat it as a crime.  Plus, we had to close an account for the same reason in June 2012 because these crooks sell the info thier affiliates.  It will be $2000 before you know it.

If anyone has had luck with thier state's Attorney General, then please detail what steps to take.  I'm starting that shortly.
