Elderly individual falls victim to monetary deception, aged 63
In the city of Erfurt, a 63-year-old woman has become a victim of a cunning fraud, losing more than 22,000 euros to fraudsters. The scam involved lottery debts and the transfer of funds to foreign accounts.
The woman received a letter claiming she had high lottery debts in various countries. The letter, which appeared authentic, suggested a supposed lawyer and so-called sponsors who would take over the debts. However, the woman was instructed to forward incoming amounts on her account to these foreign accounts.
Her bank noticed the suspicious transactions and informed her, prompting her to file a police report. The fraud case was initially reported by news aktuell.
The State Police Inspectorate Erfurt is handling the case, and the Thuringian Police can be contacted for further questions regarding the matter. The official website of the State Police Inspectorate Erfurt is polizei.thueringen.de, and the Press Office can be reached at 0361 5743-2100 or via email at [email protected].
Unfortunately, the search results do not provide information about the head of the police station (Polizeistaatskommissariat) in Erfurt or a press release regarding the fraud case of the 63-year-old woman from Erfurt.
The woman was lured into a monthly repayment plan that she couldn't afford, ultimately losing a significant amount of money. This incident serves as a stark reminder to be vigilant against such scams and to report any suspicious activities to the authorities.
