Shock call in Lilling: 67-year-old loses assets to fraudsters!

Lilling, Deutschland - in Gräfenberg, in the picturesque district of Forchheim, a perfidious shock call occurred on Tuesday afternoon, which was doomed to a 67-year-old woman from Lilling.

The handover took place between 2:15 p.m. and 2:30 p.m. near the village square in Lilling, as reported.

The perpetrators acted extremely professionally and pretended to be in an emergency.
