The police searched two apartments and business premises in Stuttgart on Wednesday on suspicion of fraud.
A 47-year-old was provisionally arrested.
He is said to have raised financial grants through public appeals since May 2020 and deceived about the intended use, as the police and public prosecutor in Stuttgart announced on Wednesday.
Stuttgart - According to previous investigations, it is about a "higher six-digit amount".
The investigation is directed against two suspects.
Evidence was secured during the searches and is now being evaluated.
A magistrate was due to decide on remand against the 47-year-old suspect on Wednesday.
