Trickur couple on the A1: Police are looking for further victims

In the past few days, a couple of tricks on the West Autobahn, especially in the area of ​​the Ybbs rest station, have gone to the police network. These two people stated that they were in a difficult financial situation and deceptive helpers to get cash.

The British couple, who was traveling with a gray vehicle and British license plate, was taken up at the A1 raststation YBBS during a police check last Friday. During the search, the police found that at least six commercial frauds could be detected to the suspects, which have led to a total amount of over 6,100 euros since the beginning of September. The victims were usually removed between 500 and 1,500 euros, whereby the promised repayments never took place.

arrest and further investigations

In the course of the police operation, the 29-year-old man was brought to the Vienna-Josefstadt judiciary, while his wife was discovered on the foot. According to information from the police, investigations into other possible fraud cases must still be completed. The police therefore ask that other injured persons report to the St. Pölten-and border police police inspection. The telephone number for contacting is: 059133-30-4906.

The Lower Austrian executive has initiated extensive surveys on the scales and is particularly concerned about the methods that these fraudsters used. At a time when many people have to pay attention to their finances, the police urgently warns of such financial machinations.

This method of deception is not new, but the current case shows how important the vigilance of drivers is. The police's information is clear: everyone should be skeptical if someone asks for help or money on the street. A helpful advice is to always consult the police or other authorities in such situations to ensure that you do not become a victim yourself.
