An 86-year-old woman from Innsbruck was scammed from unscrupulous fraudsters: the criminals mentioned the seniors of lying fairy tales and brought them to transfer several ten thousand euros to foreign accounts. A bank employee ultimately increased the alarm and probably prevented even greater damage.
Time and again the perpetrators reported to the 86-year-old-alles in November. The telephone was always tempted to invest her assets “promising”.
A total of eight transfers
The victim fell on the annoying mesh. The criminals managed to convince the woman from a total of eight transfers to foreign accounts. All in all loose the 86-year-old about 50,000 euros.
These have now disappeared. But the damage could have been even greater. “An attentive bank employee noticed the high transfers and contacted the victim of the fraud. Then the woman filed a complaint with the police,” the researchers concluded.
