Police in Monaco are warning residents of a phone scam that’s been taking in quite a few people over the past month.
First cases of the scam were reported around a month ago in which a confidence trickster calls a Monaco landline pretending to be from the police or representing a Monegasque institution.Victims are persuaded to hand over bank details or risk a large tax fine.
