Senior woman almost victim of a trick fraud - police catch perpetrators in the act!

On Monday afternoon, a 19-year-old trickster in Bremen-Hemelingen tried to bring an 88-year-old woman to money and valuables. The elderly woman received a call from a supposed policewoman who warned her that a colleague with information would come to traveling perpetrators. Shortly afterwards, a man rang on her door, presented her pictures and demanded cash and jewelry to "safe custody". The good -faith Bremer gave him money and valuable items.

But the real police quickly intervened: civilians had observed the Situation and were able to arrest the perpetrator directly at the second handover of the money. Although he fought and tried to flee, he was taken into custody. The officials found further evidence during a search of his apartment. The investigation into possible accomplices is still ongoing.
