Senior is deceptive in Sachsenheim: This is how the tricky plan was going!

In Großsachsenheim, a 65-year-old senior has become the destination of a brazen fraud attempt. On Monday morning, he was approached by an unknown perpetrator during a walk on Kirchhofstrasse, who spent the senior's former work colleague. The man spontaneously hugged the seniors, which got involved in a conversation, but the senior could not remember him, such as the Local newspaper reported.

The fraudster tried to give the senior two bracelets for his daughters in law. To do this, he pushed a bag with watches in his hand and told him all sorts of stories that should give the impression that everything was completely harmless. However, the conversation ended abruptly with the demand for a donation for the alleged daughter of the perpetrator who rejected the senior.

description of the perpetrator

The perpetrator is about 60 years old, between 165 and 170 cm tall, and described with a white -gray three -day beard. He wore a sporty jacket, a shield hat and sunglasses and drove a silver SUV. The Sachsenheim police have already started the investigation and asks for other witnesses or injuries who are to register on telephone (07147) 27 40 60 or by email to vaihingen-z.prev@polizei.bwl.de.

Caution of fraud stitches

The mesh in which fraudsters pretend to be familiar people is a classic scheme. Such fraud attempts are increasingly aimed at older people who are often caught with different tricks. Loud Police Hessen are well -known tricks, among other things, the grandchildren, in which fraudsters pretend to be relatives, and the wrong policeman who appears on the phone or at the front door.

The police advise seniors to be skeptical about unknown persons. False officials should be checked by a verdict. If you are unsure, you can call the responsible authority at any time to inquire.

sensitization is required

The Nursing Age emphasizes how important it is to sensitize older people to fraud.

In view of the steadily increasing age of the population and the associated susceptibility to such fraud stitches, it is all the more important that seniors are well informed and prepared. Common clarification actions can help to raise awareness of these dangers and thus prevent financial and emotional damage.
