The suspects informed the elderly man that fraud had been committed with his account, and that someone had to come and collect the bank card. Via a code word, which was passed on in the conversation, the man let one of the scammers in. They also managed to convince the man to give cash. “Because criminals now knew your address and could come and attack you. Out of fear and panic, you also gave your cash,” the police writes.
