New Bank Helpdesk Fraud in Team West

Gebied: Den Haag, Poeldijk

This evening, the investigation program Team West once again focuses on a fraud case in which an elderly person has fallen victim to a trick. This time, it involves a 76-year-old man from Zoetermeer. Furthermore, the police will show images of the suspects involved in an explosion in The Hague and a robbery in Poeldijk where a victim was assaulted.

On July 2, 2024, a 76-year-old man was scammed by a criminal posing as a bank employee. After gaining the mans trust, several amounts of money were withdrawn from the victims account. In the broadcast, the police show footage of the suspect withdrawing money at De Stede in The Hague.

Robbery with Violence – Poeldijk

On October 21, 2024, around 7:00 PM, a boy was threatened on Anjerstraat in Poeldijk, assaulted after a brief chase, and then robbed of his personal belongings. The victim was then pushed into a Volkswagen Golf and taken to The Hague. Three suspects ultimately dropped the boy off in Wateringen from the car before fleeing. In the broadcast, there is a call for witnesses, where the police share the descriptions of the three suspects.
