Senior citizen fell into a trap
Promised profits, now over 100,000 euros gone
A senior citizen from Rum near Innsbruck actually wanted to increase his fortune with supposedly reputable investment transactions. But now the 60-year-old is more than 100,000 euros poorer. The gullible man fell victim to unscrupulous internet fraudsters.
The Tyrolean had been in the clutches of the web crooks since the beginning of the year. They had promised the 60-year-old a lot of money. "The victim was promised that the money he had invested on an investment platform would yield high profits within a very short time," said the police.
Further amounts elicited, money gone
When the man then wanted to have the supposedly high profits paid out to him, further sums of money were extracted from him. However, the money was never paid out.
All in all, the victim suffered a loss of more than 100,000 euros. It is unlikely that he will ever get the money back.
