Why do they "know" they won't be held responsible? They believe the person who issued the POA will never find out, or ...? Being given a POA is not a license to steal/self-deal. One has a fiduciary duty to the person who issued the POA. * A POA becomes null and void upon the death of the grantor. When the deceased estate is probated any misuse of funds or mishandling of property will be discovered upon the auditing of the estate. A person abusing POA authority can be held directly responsible for such actions and said acts could result in both criminal and civil penalties.
The party who knows the POA is being misused can visit the local probate court and seek to be appointed the legal guardian of the principal. A guardianship would extinguish the POA. The petitioner/guardian who knows of the theft should gather the evidence, report it to the court and seek restitution.

You can't MAKE a credit card company reopen an account. You can call the credit bureau and request that they change the status to indicate that is was closed by you and not the credit grantor.

The process of repairing credit is slow and takes time and more than a little effort. Successful restoration of good credit requires a full understanding of how credit bureaus and individual creditors interpret your credit profile. Credit bureaus tell you that you have the right to dispute, and perhaps remove, individual items on your credit report. The reality is that most people just do not have the time, patience, nor inclination to fight a protracted credit repair battle with multinational banks and other credit providers. For those who would prefer, you can have a professional, such as an attorney, to handle these tasks.
Every individual has a line of credit. This line of credit is what determines your credit score and what will be used to approve or deny you credit cards or loans.
