Callcenter fraud: 69-year-old loses gold in the threeest deep blow!

Lappersdorf, Deutschland - On July 29, a 69-year-old Lappersdorf was the victim of a brazen call center fraud! A false police officer on the phone claimed that the man's daughter was involved in a fatal traffic accident and urgently had to be released from custody with a high deposit. In his concern for the daughter, the man handed over a suitcase full of gold worth several thousand euros to an unknown pick -up, who was performing with a taxi.

The luck of the victim was an attentive taxi driver! This recognized the fraud scheme thanks to a police prevention campaign and immediately alerted the emergency services. The police reacted quickly and found the 42-year-old collector nearby. When he was arrested, the suitcase could be secured with the gold. The accused, a Polish citizen, was demonstrated to the investigative judge the following day and came into custody. The criminal police in Regensburg are now taking over the further investigation.
