Saxony: scam fails: Senior does not pay and calls the police

Riesa (dpa / sn) - In Riesa in the Meissen district, a 73-year-old man recognized a scam and notified the police. An unknown man called the senior on Saturday and offered him a prize of 59,000 euros, the police said on Sunday. In order to receive this, however, the 73-year-old must first pay fees of 900 euros in the form of credit cards, according to the fraudster's claim. The senior did not pay, but called the police.
