An unknown perpetrator, who called herself "Amela" and is presumably staying in Vienna, has tricked a 56-year-old woman into giving her a high six-figure sum in three instances between May 21 and June 10, 2024.
The unknown perpetrator approached the woman on a street in Vienna-Döbling, presented herself as a shaman, and deceived the victim with occult/fortune-telling powers. To free her from curses and to avert an allegedly foreseen death of a family member, the perpetrator demanded cash amounts, which were handed over to the fraudster in Vienna and Baden.
The police have now created a composite sketch of the woman. Information about the perpetrator, which can also be treated confidentially if desired, is requested at the Lower Austria State Criminal Police Office, Fraud Investigation Department, under the telephone number 059133-30-3333.
