Criminal gang using forged tax authority credentials defrauds 25-year-old woman in Grevena – haul nearly €108,000
A criminal group obtained approximately €108,000 from a 25-year-old woman in Grevena by impersonating employees of the Independent Authority for Public Revenue (AAAE). The incident was revealed by Dikastiko.gr, overturning the stereotype that victims of such frauds are exclusively elderly.
According to ERT, the gang appears to have collected personal details and information about the young woman in advance, a fact suggesting organised and targeted activity.
Connection to Karperò case
Police authorities have identified similarities between this particular case and an earlier fraud that occurred recently in the village of Karperò in Grevena. Authorities believe the same gang is operating in both instances.
The Police Directorate of Grevena has already gathered witness statements regarding the physical appearance and characteristics of the perpetrators, with the aim of identifying them.
Deskati on alert
The 25-year-old woman is in poor psychological condition following her realisation of the loss. Meanwhile, the local community of Deskati is on high alert, expressing concern about the possibility of further activity by the gang in the area.
