Alarming! Shock call: man loses 180,000 euros to fraudsters

In a dramatic fraud in Dießen, an incredible 180,000 euros were stolen on Wednesday by perfidious shock calls. The unknown perpetrators deceived that his sister had caused a fatal traffic accident. In the course of the conversation, a supposed prosecutor demanded a deposit of 100,000 euros before increasing the sum to 180,000 euros, since a further death had occurred.

The unsuspecting man collected valuables and cash, packed everything in a backpack and handed it over to an unknown pick -up in Starnberg. Shortly after the handover, another call was followed by an alleged chief prosecutor who demanded more money. Only at home, where he met his well -preserved sister, was he informed about the fraud. After a last phone call with a fake LKA official who wanted to elicit further valuables, the unsettled Dießener finally turned to the police. This confirmed the fraud and advised the report. The Fürstenfeldbruck criminal police are now investigating intensively.
