Trenton resident scammed out of $6,000
A Trenton man lost $6,000 to two con artists posing as police officers Feb. 1, police told the Times of Trenton.
The thieves convinced the man that they were conducting a criminal investigation and convinced him to make a withdrawal from the bank in order to help with their inquiries. There is no information as to how the criminals took the money at this time
This is the second such scam to occur in Trenton this year, after a man lost $18,000 last month to two men pretending to be federal investigators looking into a prior scamming incident, police told the Times of Trenton.
