A 33-year-old Carinthian living in Vienna was the victim of online identity theft. His mailbox is literally exploding with reminders. He is supposed to pay invoices for goods that he never ordered. A clear-cut case - and yet it is proving difficult to clarify ...

Nobody is happy about this mail! Alexander Lanner from Carinthia, who lives in Vienna, was blindsided when he suddenly received countless invoices and requests for payment in his mailbox in November 2023 - all from companies with which he had allegedly entered into contracts.
