As the complainant told the police, at first they allegedly asked her for 400 euros to prepare the contracts through the lawyers. At a later stage, on 6 December 2021, she was allegedlyasked for a sum of 3,000 euros to be deposited in an account maintained by one of the two 48-year-olds, which she did in order to assist in the issuance of her loan.
From that date onwards, the 72-year-old allegedly did not receive any loan, nor any information about the progress of the loan and when she would secure it.
