Dubious crypto deals – fraud in the Kitzbühel salon: 400,000 euros in damage

Date:

The owner of a beauty salon in Kitzbühel in Tyrol was apparently scammed by a duo of scammers. The damage caused by dubious “cryptocurrency transactions” amounts to more than 400,000 euros. Now lawyers are involved.

A woman from Kitzbühel who runs a beauty salon in the Gamsstadt was caught by a suspected fraud duo. This consists of Ms G. and Mr T. (names made unrecognizable by the editors). It all started in February 2018. Then G. entered the entrepreneur’s salon for the first time. Through various cosmetic treatments, a friendship developed between the two women.

Promised monthly interest of 15 percent
G. took advantage of this friendship and reported to the Tyrolean about supposedly profitable investments at T., in which she had also invested and with which she had made a proud profit. For example, the entrepreneur was promised a monthly interest of 15 percent through the investment in cryptocurrency.

There were also two encounters between the victim and T., during which the Tyrolean was made palatable for the investment.

In total, the woman then transferred no less than EUR 400,710 to the London-based company. Of course there was never a payout. Nor was the required repayment of the money already invested.

“The complainant was constantly deterred and the non-return of the transfer was justified by alleged problems related to the payment process,” according to the statement of fact, which the victim’s lawyers Christina Gesswein-Spiessberger and Peter Ullmann of Gesswein-Spiessberger Traxler GmbH & Co KG, to the Innsbruck public prosecutor’s office.

“May there be more victims”
In the letter, the lawyers ask the prosecutor to “investigate the facts for criminalization or relevance” and to “interrogate the suspects and the victim”. It remains to be seen whether the Kitzbühel entrepreneur will ever see her huge sum of money again.

In an interview with the “Tiroler Krone”, the lawyer suspects that “there may be other victims”. Therefore, she hopes that based on the messages, they will contact her law firm, which also has an intercom in Kitzbühel.
