Slovenian text: Online scam: Police are investigating a scam that left an older man from the Maribor area without more than 90,000 euros. The victim of the scam was when he responded to an online advertisement related to trading in raw materials, wrote the Maribor Police Department. “Investment scams often begin with advertisements about fabulous earnings, and the advertisements are particularly common on social networks.
They try to convince you with an easy investment process, they give you access to an online portal that can show imaginary data about incredible growth of invested funds. When you want to transfer the earned money, further payments are disabled, and the perpetrators condition them on new investments and demand new funds to cover various fictitious costs,” they wrote.
