The scammer operates on a simple scheme: he asks for a small «loan» for a ticket, citing problems with his card. He tells a sob story and often targets teenagers or elderly people. After that, he disappears. Usually, the amounts involved are 100\u2013200 zlotys, which is why many do not report it to the police.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Recently, a 16-year-old boy from Sopot became a victim. His mother reported that her son was waiting for a train to Warsaw when a man aged 30\u201340 approached him \u2014 well-dressed and polite. He convincingly explained that his Revolut wasn’t working and asked for money for a ticket. He played on emotions, saying that his girlfriend would be angry. The teenager believed him: he had photos of the man’s documents, a phone number, and a promise to return the money via BLIK.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The boy withdrew 150 zlotys from an ATM and handed it to the stranger. He disappeared. The next day, it was impossible to contact him \u2014 the phone was turned off, and no one returned the money.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It later turned out that this person's details had already appeared in victim groups. According to witnesses, he has been operating at the Tricity train stations for a long time, deceiving people for small amounts. Due to the small losses, victims rarely file reports<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This time, the case has been handed over to the criminal police in Sopot. Law enforcement is establishing the suspect's identity and checking the circumstances. According to them, such schemes are well known, and catching him is just a matter of time<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The police urge reporting even small cases of fraud. If several such episodes accumulate, the perpetrator may face more serious consequences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
