In broken Greek, the alleged doctor was asking the Agrinio father for money to operate his child at… KAT
Residents of Agrinio are upset as yesterday they received phone calls from strangers, with disguises, who intended to deceive them.
Several incidents were recorded yesterday in the wider area of Agrinio and several have already been reported to the police authorities. Wishing to protect any unsuspecting fellow citizens, some of them also informed agriniopress.
According to the complainant, the unknown would-be fraudsters called her husband undercover. In the first call the voice on the other end of the line impersonated their young son, “crying” and claiming to have rung.
After a while, on the second phone call, another voice with broken Greek impersonated the… doctor. He argued that the child should be operated on immediately.
With this methodology, the astute ask for account numbers and manage to extort sums of money. Except that in this case the… “doctor” declared to the Agrinio father that his minor son was getting ready to be operated on… at the KAT of Attica.
Although blabbermouths, in this case, great caution is recommended in such phone calls, especially to older people.
