Senior woman saved her savings: mesh of the wrong police!

On Thursday, a senior citizen made a victim of a sophisticated phone fraud. A stranger pretended to be a police officer and informed the unsuspecting woman that her daughter had caused a fatal accident. In order to prevent the daughter from having to go to prison, she had to pay a deposit. The fraudster let the senior citizen speak to an alleged judge in the afternoon who convinced her to withdraw large sums of money from her bank.

Afterwards, the senior woman handed the money over to an unknown woman who was 1.60 meters tall, slim and about 32 years old, with shoulder -length, blond hair and in gray clothing. The handover took place near Peterstrasse. The fraud only noticed when the senior citizen was on the phone with her daughter and could clarify the Situation. The police asks for information on this incident on 0800/2361 111. Further means of prevention against such fraud stitches are on www.presseportal.de available.
