At the request of the criminal police, a supplier sifts through his invoices related to one customer. The supplier comes across several e-mails and telephone calls that show that this customer is dealing with technical failures and overdue payments. However, these e-mails and telephone calls aren’t from the customer in question but from a criminal organisation.
When this customer does the same investigation, they too discover what appear to be e-mails and telephone calls from the supplier… The criminal organisation is trying to con both parties. On the one hand, they’re trying to eliminate the supplier with the so-called overdue payments while on the other hand trying to con the customer by changing the bank account number.
In short, the customer booked money into the criminal organisation’s bank account and the supplier was left with the unpaid bills. Everybody loses. In this case, the police managed to round up the criminal organisation, but unfortunately the money was nowhere to be found.
