Honestly, I dont know if you can.
If it were me, I would call the soliciting agencies and tell them the person they're sending the offers to has no money and medical issues, and will likely die with no estate, so if they give them money, good luck getting it paid back. And don't co-sign anything.

This is from the USPS website:

How do I remove my name from mailing lists?

Anyone who wants to reduce the amount of marketing mail they receive may write to the Direct Marketing Association Preference Service, which is independent of the United States Postal Service, and let them know they do not want to receive marketing mail. In addition, the three major credit-reporting services (Equifax, Experian & TransUnion) also offer a name removal option:

To “Remove” your name from common mailing lists, you may send your written request, along with a processing fee, to:

DMAchoice
DATA & MARKETING ASSOCIATION
POST OFFICE BOX 643
CARMEL NY 10512-0643 

There is a processing fee for both online registration and mail-in registration. Please visit the DMAchoice website https://dmachoice.thedma.org/ for complete information. For further Mail Preference Service information please visit https://thedma.org/.

 Or you can go online and have their mail go to your house or a PO Box so you can intercept it.

I did it this way for my Mom.

I think some of these places are getting wise but if a prepaid envelope is enclosed, then put the info you received in that envelope. There usually is a piece of paper with your name and address on it. If so, circle your name and write to take your name and any name associated with that address off their mailing list. If ur address is only on the envelope then cut the front off showing your address and do what I wrote. This should be the first piece of paper they see. If I couldn't do it this way, I went on their website and requested by email that you want no more mailings. None of this, even Data and Marketing, will happen overnight. Returning what is considered junk mail to the PO will not work. The PO will not return junk mail to the sender. First class you can write "return to sender".

Signing up for things like Publishers Clearing house will start junk mail coming. Buying a magazine subscription and entering contests for trips or a new car will start the junk mail coming. I stopped all of this long ago. I get very little junk mail. The worst one is telling me my warranty on my car has expired. My Moms been gone 3 yrs and hadn't driven for 4, car sold. But I recently received a warranty letter for her.
