Telephone scams continue to be the order of the day despite continuous warnings from banks, the Police and the media.
Now, a 40-year-old woman was scammed by a person who, through deception, induced her to provide her personal data, with which she managed a credit of 50 thousand pesos.
Official sources reported that on Wednesday he received a telephone call in which a man posed as an employee of a private bank and indicated that there was a pending operation for the sale of a motorcycle through social networks.
The woman explained that her son had offered his motorcycle for sale through a Facebook group and that the alleged buyer sent him a password to his e-mail box. It was learned that his son managed a token that he made known to the alleged bank employee and the buyer of the motorcycle, with the promise that in the next few hours the agreed amount for the sale of the vehicle would be credited.
Shortly after, when verifying the status of their bank account, it was found that they had managed a credit for 50 thousand pesos, of which 49 thousand were transferred to another account and one thousand were credited to a cell phone line.
