On 5/28/265, a Hillsborough resident reported that they had been scammed out of $2.7 million dollars. The victim reported that in December, they had received a phone call stating that their bank account had been flagged by Interpol for fraudulent activity. Due to the fear of their accounts being frozen, the victim complied with the alleged Interpol investigator’s demands and transferred all of their retirement savings to multiple banks located in Vietnam. The victim realized they had been scammed when they were unable to contact the alleged Interpol Investigator. HPD Investigators are in the beginning stages of this complex international financial crimes investigation.
