Crime thriller in Carinthia

Savings gone: “Banker sent fake statement!”

The "Krone" newspaper has unbelievable details about the alleged mega-fraud in Villach. A banker is said to have defrauded his victims of millions - so cleverly that it sounds like something out of a TV thriller. Among other things, he allegedly deceived a family for 17 years with fake account statements! Now their savings are gone.

The statements made by an honorable academic sound almost unbelievable - but they are confirmed by the files and the legal representative. His family may have been so cleverly defrauded by a bank advisor that they would have had no chance of noticing the scam beforehand. Because the "crime scene" was his own bank, the suspect was the bank advisor he had valued for 17 years!
