In Umag, a case of fraud was reported where an unknown man, falsely presenting himself as a police officer, deceived an 80-year-old woman. He claimed that her money in the bank was not safe and asked her to hand over the money for verification of the serial numbers of the banknotes. The woman withdrew a large sum of money and handed it over to the unknown man in front of her building. After the money was not returned, the woman reported the case to the police. The police are actively working on identifying and finding the perpetrator, and citizens, especially the elderly, are warned to be cautious and not fall for such scams.
