Man becomes the victim of internet fraud-police warn of e-mail traps!

Günzburg, Deutschland - In Günzburg, a man fell for a brazen email fraud who led him to a double-digit amount of money. On Monday, around 2 p.m., the injured party filed the Günzburg police inspection for Internet fraud. The fraudster had pretended to be a well -known automobile club and offered the man an allegedly free emergency kit. To get the kit, he only had to pay 1.95 euros for shipping and stated his account details. However, the breakdown kit failed to materialize, and a few days later the man noticed an unauthorized debit of around 70 euros from his account.

Although the injured party immediately blocked his account, the bank could not get the sum already debited. The Günzburg police inspection now warns of similar fake emails that are sent under the pretext of free emergency kits. "It is important to delete such e-mails immediately and do not reveal any account details," said the authorities, according to the authorities, in order to prevent further fraud. The message about this incident is particularly alarming, since many people are not informed enough about the dangers of online fraud, as well as the Allgäuer Zeitung reported.

The police authority hopes to protect more people from such fraud through education and warnings, such as the current via the fake emails of the automotive club. Again and again it happens that internet users fall for prepared offers and lose their personal data and money. This example makes it clear how important caution when dealing with such offers that often seem too tempting.
