New mesh: Man from Neu-Ulm district loses considerable sum through love fraud
A 58-year-old man from the Neu-Ulm district became the victim of a new fraud, known as "Lovescam", in which he suffered a significant financial loss. The perpetrators acted via a fake account on a social media platform and thus made contact with the man.
Intensive correspondence developed over several weeks, which led to a supposed love relationship between the victim and the supposed partner. Under various preliminary walls, the fraudsters managed to make the 58-year-old man repeatedly transferred money to foreign accounts. One of the lies was the news writer's claim that her mother was seriously ill in the hospital and urgently needed financial support for the treatment.
In addition, the victim was given a considerable amount of money as a repayment from a supposed heritage. In order to receive this sum, the man had to transfer a four -digit amount to a foreign account so that the payment could be made. Finally the man recognized the fraud and turned to the criminal police. The Neu-Ulm criminal police inspection has started the investigation.
In addition to this incident, there are other victims of similar love fraud stitches in the Neu-Ulm district. Almost 20 such cases were reported in 2023, while this year in the Neu-Ulm district was about half a dozen. The perpetrators have captured a five -digit amount of money. (AZ)
