Lost documents and fraud prevention on suchen.expert:
If you place an advert for lost documents on suchen.expert, special care is required. Unfortunately, there are fraudsters who take advantage of the loss of documents to trap people.
If, after publishing your ad on Suchen.expert, you receive contact requests from supposed representatives of official institutions claiming to have found your documents but demanding payment for their return, be extremely suspicious. This could be a sign of fraud.
Never pay for the return of lost documents, regardless of the promises made. Fraudsters could take advantage of your situation and deprive you of both your documents and your money.
If you are contacted by someone claiming to be affiliated with an official body, thoroughly verify the caller's identity. Contact the institution directly through official channels to confirm the caller's authenticity. Never disclose personal or financial information without being sure.
It is important to emphasise that institutions such as the police or lost property offices never demand payment for the return of documents. If you suspect fraud, please inform the police immediately and provide all relevant information about the alleged fraudster. With your help, suchen.expert can help to combat such fraudulent activities and protect other users.
