Although he realized that some people were trying to get their hands on his account, he did not manage to cancel the transaction for a few minutes
A businessman from Volos did not manage to save his deposits for a few minutes, who realized that strangers were trying to get their hands on his account and called his bank to cancel the money transfer.
However, the few minutes he waited to be connected to the responsible employee were enough for the fraudsters who managed to break into his account and transferred the amount of 15,000 euros to two accounts that were verified to have been opened in a foreign country!
The businessman filed a complaint with the Security Service, in which he says that the perpetrators "hacked" his mobile phone and, at the moment he made a transaction via e-banking, they saw the one-time code (extra pin) sent to him by SMS, with which they made the transfer. The Volos Prosecutor's Office was informed about the case and ordered a preliminary investigation to identify the owners of the two accounts.
