Friedrich-Ebert-Straße/Schwarzenberger Straße, Duisburg, Deutschland - A 66-year-old woman from Duisburg was victims of an unscrupulous trick fraud on Tuesday, April 15th. She received a call from a supposed bank employee via a landline phone who claimed to have discovered illegal debit on her account. In order to fix the alleged damage, he asked for her mobile phone number. Shortly afterwards she received a message about WhatsApp from a wrong police officer who scared the woman with a story about a suspected thief. To secure evidence, she should get her entire cash from the bank.

around 3:30 p.m. the unsuspecting woman handed over a considerable amount of money to an unknown man who promised to bring the money back after securing evidence. But this return failed to return. The Duisburg police urgently warns: End suspicious calls immediately, do not respond to demands and never hand over money to strangers. If you have any doubt, you always have to contact the police or your own bank via official service numbers.
