The police warns of a treacherous wave of fraud: a group-wide group of perpetrators of Austria probably scammed several men and women with “phishing-falling” at the beginning of January.
Among them is a 36-year-old Southeast Styrian: On January 7 she reported that she was lured to a deceptively real-looking website of her bank via an SMS and he entered personal information with the help of QR code. Then the money was remedied from Vienna, the police said on Friday.
Cases in Vienna, Upper Austria and Salzburg
It turned out that the Styrian was probably not the only victim of the perpetrator’s fraud group: cases of equally stored cases were also reported in Vienna, Upper Austria and Salzburg. According to the researchers, a connection could exist.
It is believed that there can be other cases in Austria. With photos of surveillance cameras of those ATMs where money has been remedied by the victims, the suspect is now being asked.
