A 44-year-old wanted to put all the family’s savings in the bank. But the five-figure sum was lost on the way to the financial institution. So far no honest finder has been found.
A 44-year-old in Bruck an der Leitha experienced a financial drama. The man wanted to deposit his family’s savings, worth a small new car, into the account. He carried the money with him in an envelope. But the bank may never achieve this. The Weinviertler had previously picked up the offspring from a childcare center. On the way back to the car he discovered that the envelope had been lost.
Everything was immediately searched, but the bundle of money never showed up. The next step for the 44-year-old was to go to the police and file a report. There is no doubt about the man’s version: “There would be no reason to fabricate such a loss. He is not covered by insurance.”
Scammers cause ‘counterfeit money alarm’
Meanwhile, fraudsters are after their victims’ money with a scam that is currently being widely reported in the Bruck an der Leitha district. They pose as bank employees on the telephone and point out that counterfeit money has appeared in the branch. To make sure this has not gone into circulation, someone would come by and inspect the money on site. The investigation is ongoing.
