Case in Erfurt: 39-year-old loses almost 89,000 euros on the phone!

Erfurt, Deutschland - A 39-year-old man from Erfurt was the victim of a brazen fraud on Sunday afternoon. Around 5:30 p.m. he received a call from a stranger who spent his bank employee. The perpetrator pretended that there were unauthorized access to his account and urged the man to follow several instructions to stop alleged debit.

The fatal result? The Erfurt authorized transfers that led to damage of almost 89,000 euros! The fraud was obviously when the man called back the number and turned out that he had gone to a perfidious fraudster. The state police urgently warns: never give sensitive information on the phone! They do not ask banks to transfers and even known numbers can be fake. If you suspect immediately, end the conversation and contact the bank via official contacts!
