Ahrensburg: Town of Interest - Senior female transfers €2,000 to a fake daughter.

At about 10:50 a.m., the targeted individual got a text with the following content: "Hello mommy, here's my new number ...". The person claiming to be the daughter asked for a financial transaction during their exchange. The mother from Ahrensburg thought she was assisting her child, therefore, executed the transfer. She later learned that the sender wasn't her kid.

The authorities warn the public to check with their known children if they receive similar messages, and contact the police department, if needed. Fraudsters employ various tactics, such as door-to-door visits or "shock calls". Hence, it's crucial to exercise caution and be on guard.
