Internet fraud! Flachgauer loses 3,200 euros through a bold scam

A horrific case of fraud is shaking the Flachgau! A 49-year-old man fell victim to a sophisticated internet fraud after posting a sales advertisement on an online platform in late November. A stranger showed interest and then demanded the victim's phone number. On December 19th, the Flachgau resident received a seemingly tempting purchase offer from another account, which he accepted using the platform's official purchase method. But in the meantime, he also received a messenger message to discuss details, followed by a fake SMS with a link. The most fatal thing about it? The man clicked on the link and triggered a series of debits!

As soon as he clicked on the link, he was relieved of a shocking 3,200 euros. The police are now investigating this outrageous case, which shows how unscrupulous fraudsters can act on the Internet. According to a press report, investigations are underway to catch the perpetrator and prevent further victims. You are strongly warned not to click on unverified links, especially if they appear in connection with offers to purchase.
