Attention before fraud! Wrong Sparkassen employee in Rheine Active

Rheine, Deutschland - A 30-year-old man from Rheine was the victim of a brazen telephone fraud on Monday! A false employee of the Sparkasse called and pretended that there was a fraud with its account. In order to stop allegedly illegal debit, the fraudster asked the Rheinenser to access his account. With clever spoofing, the phone showed the real number of the Sparkasse, which won the victim's trust.

The treacherous caller took the opportunity to book a four-digit euro amount from the 30-year-old's account by direct transfer. The fraud was only uncovered when contacting the Stadtsparkasse. The police urgently warns of this perfidious stitch: no bank would ask for sensitive data on the phone! Put on such information to you and consult friends or relatives if in doubt. Protect yourself and report suspicious calls to the police!
