Unfortunately, even in our modern day and age, there are those in vulnerable positions who are still being preyed upon by the more fortunate group of larger income earners and people with a good bit of financial backing.
One of the circumstances where this could arise might be the death of a loved one, divorce, or an illness of someone that may have something for the taking.
Be aware that you are in need of protection when unfortunate circumstances arise, so that you aren't swindled by someone more fortunate... who got there by doing this very thing, yet it can only last for so long before the Universe will end it.
Personal property can be attractive to predators, as well as cash, or any type of real estate or property. Anything, really.
To protect yourself, if something like this might be coming your way (such as an inheritance or gift of some type), don't talk to people about it until you have it secured. You never know who may want to take it away and claim it for their own.
If you are suffering from an illness that makes you vulnerable, be sure to have a trusted loved one in the nearby area who can be counted on to keep an eye on you and your valuables, keeping them safe from any unwanted attacks.
Sometimes people can seem to be your friend during times of need, however, may have ulterior motives. If they weren't there for you beforehand, don't trust them to be there for your safety now. Exceptions might be someone who is clearly a trusted professional with a sound reputation, although even this can be a bit tricky to ascertain in times of need.
If something is rightfully yours, be sure to protect yourself and avoid the income loss it can incur to lose something of value, especially during times of grief and bereavement.
If you are experiencing loss, call upon your Archangels who love and support you. They are there for you when you need them to be, as always, and can guide you through.
