Prevencia –; crime against senior citizens

Dear citizens,

The District Directorate of PZ in Pezinok calls on senior citizens to be extra careful and prudent, as there have been recent cases in the Bratislava Region again, when fraudsters lured considerable cash from seniors. In this context, the police alert you to cases where a person may contact you in person or by telephone, which you do not know and tries under various pretexts, get cash from you. Cheat, who cares about your money, may impersonate an employee of an insurance undertaking, power plant, gas, or other institutions, Your family member (vnuk, syn, nephew), or your new neighbor.

The police therefore stress, seniors:

• v žiadnom prípady nevpúšťajte osoby , which you do not know in your dwellings
• under no circumstances go anywhere with an unknown person, even if this one is forcing you, that he will take you home
• Remember, že preplatky sa osobne v mieste bydliska nevyplácajú
• don't give anyone cash on demand, first contact and consult your loved ones

Also in connection with another recorded case of fraud in the Bratislava region, pri ktorom sa podvodník vydával za príbuzného a neskôr za príslušníka Policajného zboru a vylákal od seniorky nemalú finančnú hotovosť. The police are appealing to our seniors, so that you do not trust the emotional story of strangers and under no circumstances give cash to people, which you do not know, even if they introduced themselves as police officers.

V prípade akéhokoľvek podozrenia ihneď telefonicky kontaktujte políciu na bezplatnom telefónnom čísle 158.
