„She searched for an investment company on the Internet, and contacted them. They quickly agreed on cooperation. She enrolled in the program and paid the entry fee. Then she could invest,” said police spokesman Bohumil Malášek.
The bank intervened in vain
Well, actually it wasn’t that simple. After transferring hundreds of thousands of crowns from the bank, the institution intervened and refused to send more money to the fraudulent account. “The bank responded in the same way to the second emphatic attempt made by the victim,” Malášek mentioned.
Therefore the woman called the investment company. They suggested she take out a loan and invited her to Prague to a luxurious restaurant. They willingly helped her with the registration of the crypto wallet and the initial investments.
In Brno, she pushed money into a bitcoin machine like a wild woman. “She transferred almost two million crowns to cryptocurrency. But that wasn’t enough for the fraudsters. They started blackmailing her saying that they allegedly owed her the same amount as she had invested. This prompted her to come to the police. However, it took the police several hours before the victim realized she had been cheated.” added a police spokesman.
