Three women in their 80s called police on Thursday and reported that they had been called by the fraudster. In at least one case, the fraudster has presented himself as a police officer named "Stefan Johansson".

Asked to provide account details

The approach is the same that was noticed in Västmanland and Uppland last week. He has stated that a fraud is happening from the person's account and has then tried to get the person to disclose account details or to log into the Internet bank with, for example, bank ID.

Other remorse

- The better, the prosecutors in all three cases have felt uneasy and the perpetrator has not succeeded, says Katrineholm Police Investigator Peter Göransson.

In addition to the three reports, the police have also received a number of tips on similar incidents. However, there have not been any notifications made since the callers wanted to be anonymous.
