How can you tell when someone isn't being genuine?

Hi,

I've come to the conclusion I can rarely trust anyone; I guess that stems mostly from my bad experiences in childhood. My mother was taken advantage off by several people who she thought were close friends. That's only the ones I know about, she was not open to discussing things that was troubling her. When she past away, I was angry that these people took advantage of her kind nature.

Similar to bullying as a child, these people seek out to spot vulnerabilities in others and exploit them. In past there was a time when I was wealthy, but didn't want to appear like that because I didn't want to be taken advantage off.

Tom, I remember you discussing the situation with your godparents, I am angry at that behaviour. Reading your post in this thread, I wonder if you have a case to report this as fraud. I feel it is likely those people have taken advantage of others, and although the police may not be able to do anything about it, it could expose their activity. You can also contest a will, I have a situation with my siblings over my mother's will. Citizens advice might be a good place to start.
