Fraud mesh in Warendorf: Senior woman brought to save!

On Monday, March 10, 2025, a senior citizen was victim of a sophisticated fraud in Warendorf and lost her savings. They called unknown fraudsters and claimed that their money had been exchanged for counterfeit money in a bank. Under the pretext that a police officer would accompany her for protection, the senior citizen was fooled by a supposed official who finally fled her bag full of money.

The police urgently warns of increasingly sophisticated fraud stitches who mostly target older people. Whether the wrong traffic accident or fake emergencies - the fraudsters shy away from not getting the money of their victims. In order to protect themselves, the police urgently advise you to be skeptical, to invest immediately when unknown money demands and in case of doubt to inform the police under emergency number 110.
