Robbery Deception in Cologne-Ossendorf
A theft involving a smartphone purchase occurred in the Cologne-Ossendorf district on 10th August. The police are currently seeking two men aged 25-30 in connection with the incident.
According to the complainant, the theft took place during a simulated sales negotiation at their apartment. The stolen smartphone was a packaged one, originally offered on an online platform. The complainant noticed that the carton had a different IMEI number and storage capacity after the theft.
The advice given by the Criminal Prevention is to be cautious when engaging in sales involving a "Fake Phone". It is strongly recommended to take a trusted person with you to sales negotiations, especially when dealing with valuable items. Meeting in a public place for sales negotiations is also advised as a safety measure.
In addition, it is crucial to check the authenticity of items before handing them over. Be mindful when showing valuable items that have been previously published with images on the internet, as they may be replaced with fakes. Check the IMEI numbers and other product details such as storage size against your contract data.
If you find anything suspicious during a sales negotiation, the emergency number "110" is available as a resource. The police are urgently seeking witnesses who can provide information about the suspects and/or the method of the crime.
