Priestewitz. Unknown people cheated a woman (53) out of almost 2,000 euros on Monday morning. The perpetrators wrote a message to the 53-year-old and pretended to be their daughter. They claimed that her cell phone was defective and that she therefore had a new phone with a new number. Since online banking would not be possible with this, they asked for an invoice to be paid by bank transfer. The woman complied and transferred around 1,900 euros to an account. (SZ)
