East Tyroleans defrauded
“Transfer” of crypto assets turned out to be expensive
You can't be too careful: once again, fraudsters have shown great skill in ripping off a Tyrolean for a cryptocurrency. A large sum of money is gone . . .
The 49-year-old local man had been investing in a cryptocurrency since 2021 and received a text message on his cell phone informing him that a "stranger" was accessing his balance.
"Employee" contacted him
In the course of an initial telephone contact, an alleged employee of this company managed to persuade the 49-year-old to transfer the money he had invested. He disclosed all of the accesses until finally a higher five-digit euro amount was transferred.
No more access to money
Since then, the East Tyrolean has no longer been able to access the money and contact with the alleged employee has also been broken off, which is why the victim filed a complaint with the police.
