Western Palatinate: A Geographical Region in West Germany - A 54-year-old woman is deceived by a phone fraud.
Over the weekend, a scammer reached out to a woman claiming unauthorized debits were made from her account. The man pretended to be trying to help her reverse the charges and guided her to click on a link sent via text. Unaware, the 54-year-old believed his story and followed his instructions, authorizing more charges on her credit card.
A pre-set spending limit saved her from bigger losses, as the fraudulents stopped at €3,000. After the holidays, she became aware of the situation and contacted the cops. The inquiry is still in progress, but it appears the money is most likely gone.
