Officers from the Economic Crime Department of the Municipal Police Headquarters in Jelenia Góra detained a 43-year-old resident of Legnica suspected of fraud.
As they established, in order to obtain a loan, the woman submitted a forged identity document and falsified documentation concerning her employment and earnings to one of Jelenia Góra’s parabanking institutions. The fraudster applied for a loan of PLN 9,000.
But that was not the end of it. Officers also established that in December last year, the 43-year-old had fraudulently obtained PLN 7,000 in the same way. The fraudster also had another unsuccessful attempt to commit this type of crime on her record.
Police are currently clarifying all the circumstances of the case in detail. The detained woman confessed to the crime. She could now face between six months and as much as eight years in prison.
