Bremen: Fraudsters collect thousands after telephone trick with a pensioner!
Bremen, Deutschland - On March 13, 2024, a 57-year-old woman from Bremen became the victim of an unscrupulous fraud, in which perpetrators spoke out as bank employees. They contacted the injured party by phone and convinced them with skillful conversation to open their online banking. This gave the unknown access to their account and the account of a relative.
With this access, the fraudsters were able to create a digital bank card and then made several purchases and money withdrawals in the Bremen area. The damage incurred amounts to several thousand euros. In the course of the investigation, the authorities secured video material that shows the perpetrators during the payment process in a REWE branch what could contribute to the identification of criminals.Investigations by the police
