Stealing ID

Lost24

To take loan without our knowledge is often associated with stealing ID. We wrote numerous times about the theft of the identity and about consequences it can bring about. 

However, the example which we want to present is completely different. 


Ten instalments of about 180 PLN, so much was seen on falsified forms from the bank which were received by an elderly man from Elbląg. On the falsified letter from the bank everything seemed to be in perfect order i.e. the surname or the place of residence, but the man did not take any loan and also he did not hire-purchase anything. 


To find the explanation of this situation, the man called the info line, he found the number on the official bank website. It turned out that the given number of a loan agreement did not exist, and the bank form was falsified in order to extort money out of the elderly person. 

The Elbląg police investigate the case. 


It is another way to extort money out of elderly people. Warn our family and friends.
