Police authorities in the Radovljiški area and Celje have reported multiple instances of sophisticated web fraud involving cryptocurrency investment schemes. In these incidents, the victim was contacted by unknown individuals who used false promises of profit to deceive them. According to the initial reports, the perpetrator established trust with the victim using communications via both phone and email.
The fraudsters successfully convinced the victim to grant them access to the victim’s bank account. Once access was secured, the perpetrator executed several unauthorized transactions, resulting in the theft of over 90,000 euros in total across the reported cases. The police are currently gathering all available documentation and notifications related to the fraud.
Authorities confirmed that they are compiling comprehensive findings to submit to the competent state prosecutor. In both reported cases, the core method of deception remained consistent: the perpetrator impersonated figures promising substantial earnings through cryptocurrency trading. The victim, following the detailed instructions provided by the perpetrator, inadvertently authorized the fraudulent transfers.
The police are actively investigating these incidents to trace the flow of the stolen euros and pursue the perpetrators responsible for defrauding the victims.
