Fraudsters cheated an 83-year-old woman from Bad Salzuflen for a mid-five-digit amount. The perpetrators led the lady on the phone to believe that her son was in an emergency.
Elderly did not suspect
The woman handed them cash and jewelry on Mörikestrasse last Wednesday afternoon. The police are now looking for witnesses. The alleged money messenger is about 1.80 m tall, 20 to mid-30 years old, slim and brunette.
He was wearing gray pants and a plaid long-sleeved shirt.
