The man, who was hiding behind false identities, convinced a 61-year-old woman that they were in a relationship, even though they had never met. Using a fake Facebook account, he emotionally manipulated her, citing health problems and large debts to doctors. The woman agreed to send him significant amounts of money in several installments, including 168,000 euros, 2,000 dollars, and over 30,000 lei, over the course of three years.
After realizing that she had been the victim of a scammer, she alerted the authorities. The man was taken to the prosecutor's office for questioning and is accused of continued fraud.
