Tyrolean (49) ripped off
More than 100,000 euros lost to online scammers
What a shame! Once again, a Tyrolean (49) fell victim to a brazen online fraudster. For months, the man transferred money to a foreign "crypto wallet". More than 100,000 euros have now been lost.
According to the police, the man from Münster (Kufstein district) transferred more than 100,000 euros to fraudsters in three tranches between December 2023 and January 2024. The foreign "crypto wallet" had been recommended to him by an internet acquaintance. "After the last transfer, however, the account on the platform was blocked," according to the police.
Further claim no longer transferred
In order to regain access to his account, the 49-year-old was supposed to transfer a further six-figure euro amount. However, the man did not comply with this request. "The man nevertheless suffered a loss amounting to a low six-figure euro sum," said the police.
