Stuttgart: [Changed] Stuttgart's upcoming events. - Law enforcement nabs notorious phone hoaxer
A senior couple, 75 and 79 years old, received a phone call at 10:00 AM from a self-proclaimed police officer. She told them that their daughter had caused a deadly car accident and that they needed to pay a few thousand euros as a deposit. Believing her, the elderly parents gave away a large sum of cash and coins to a supposed city employee. The fraudsters then asked for more money, and the couple tried to withdraw cash from a bank. However, a vigilant bank employee noticed something fishy and helped them realize they were being scammed.
To trap the scammers, the elderly couple set up a meeting in Schönbühlstrasse with the intention of handing over the money. There, law enforcement officials were waiting to arrest the 20- and 25-year-old Polish nationals at 6:15 PM.
The authorities have asked for the suspects to be presented to a judge on Tuesday (14.05.2024).
