Frechen: Police warn of the brazen fraud stitch in the neighborhood
in Frechen-Buschbell there was a brazen fraud last Friday, in which an unknown perpetrator cheated on a couple for jewelry. The approximately 180 centimeter tall man with short, black hair, who, according to witnesses, wore a light blue jeans and white sneakers, uses a sophisticated stitch to get to valuables. The Rhein-Erft-Kreis police immediately dealt with the search for this fraudster.
It all started with a call from the unknown who asked about jewelry, which the couple probably offered for sale. Around 1:30 p.m. he rang on the door of those affected in Römerstrasse. He explained that he wanted to have the jewelry appreciated and left a supposedly expensive brand watch as a deposit. But this move was only used to sneak up the jewelry. The fraudster flooded and left the couple with the loss.
Investigations and the description of the perpetrator
The investigation runs through the responsible criminal commissioner 12, which aims to find further witnesses that may have information about the incident or the perpetrator. The police ask the public to report if it has made suspicious observations or gives information about the perpetrator. The contact is possible both by phone at 02271 81-0 and by email via poststelle.rhein-erft-kreis@Polizei.nrw.de
speed is the be -all and end -all. The police officers used initiated the search immediately after the perpetrator's escape, secured traces and created a criminal complaint. Part of the investigation focuses on whether the clock left as a deposit may be a fake, which could perhaps increase the dimension of fraud.
The police therefore give important advice to avoid such fraud stitches. It is urgently advised not to leave any strangers into their own home. Skepticism should always be shown in inquiries or offers, especially when it comes to valuables and amounts of money. Information about your own financial situation should never be passed on to strangers. In the suspicion of being affected, the police should be reported immediately.
Fast action is also crucial in such cases. The police can react quickly if they reach the "110" emergency call. Even if no direct break -in has occurred, it can be important to report suspicious persons in good time to protect other potential victims.

The public is invited to actively participate in the clarification of such incidents in order to jointly strengthen the feeling of security in the neighborhood.
