Ottobrunn: Fraudsters try Corona scam - the married couple does not fall for the vaccination trick

The telephone crooks also called Manfred Bock and his wife Barbara - however, the couple from Ottobrunn (Munich district) were vigilant, they let the crooks off.

The caller wanted to arrange a vaccination appointment with you.

The Bocks were taken aback because they were named as the location of the Ottobrunn vaccination center (which does not even exist) and because they were asked to name the numbers on their identity cards.

Barbara Bock hung up - and did exactly the right thing.
