Warnings issued by police concerning the presence of gypsies in Greifswald

In a recent development, the Greifswald Police Station received an unremarkable call on August 7, 2025, reporting two vehicles without official license plates parked on a field. Further investigations revealed that these vehicles were linked to a traveling criminal group from Romania, suspected of operating a fraudulent business.

The police are warning citizens to be cautious when approached by local companies, not to sign offers immediately, and to gather information about the company and get comparative quotes. This criminal group is suspected of approaching citizens with claims of guttering renewal or roof repair, using inferior materials, performing work improperly, or not completing work at all.

As of now, no reported cases involving this modus operandi have been found. However, the police are urging vigilance among the public. If you have any tips or questions, you can contact the service station, the online watch, or any other police station via http://www.polizei.mvnet.de. The police can also be reached on Twitter at @Polizei_PP_NB.

For inquiries outside of office hours and on weekends, contact the duty officer at 0395 5582 2223 or via email at [email protected]. The police headquarters in Neubrandenburg can be contacted at 0395/5582-2041 or via email at [email protected].

It is important to note that if a commissioned company does not deliver as agreed, does not show up, or demands more money, contact the police to report fraud. The suspected leader of the criminal group is a Polish drug lord wanted for murder, drug trafficking, and membership in a criminal organization, who led a violent gang in Krakow involved in transporting drugs from Spain to Poland. The police last investigated this group starting in May 2025, leading to the arrest of the leader in Benahavís, Málaga, on August 26, 2025.

The police are also urging homeowners not to be pressured into immediate action when approached with alleged existing defects. Consulting building experts is advised for homeowners when dealing with such issues. Always remember to gather information about a company and obtain comparative quotes before signing any offers.
