The 88-year-old did transactions online and made multiple trips to his local TD Bank to arrange transfers, bank drafts and payments to other people's credit cards. Now, Moore and his family are asking why the bank didn't do more to stop the transactions — and won't reimburse him. "I don't think they protected me," he told Go Public from his home in Qualicum Beach, B. C. His daughter Leslie Herrndorf, who lives in another city, says she was incredulous when she learned what happened. Got a story you want investigated?
