The Vox leader in Palma encourages citizens to report these frauds after regaining some of their legal security.
PalmA court in Palma has sentenced a woman for defrauding Fulgencio Coll, leader of Vox in the Palma City Council, of nearly 900 euros through a text message sent to his mobile phone. According to Coll himself, the events occurred in January 2024. He first received an unknown call, which he did not answer as he was in a meeting, and then a message that appeared to be from a bank. The text informed him of several transactions he did not recognize, and the link provided requested personal information. "They were very clever," Coll acknowledged. Subsequently, three charges totaling 895 euros were made to his account. Once he realized he had been scammed, Coll alerted his bank and filed a complaint with the National Police. The case went to trial this Monday, and both the prosecution and the defense reached a plea agreement. The sentence acknowledges the facts but does not entail imprisonment. Coll has welcomed the court ruling and encouraged all citizens who are victims of cyber fraud to report it. "Justice is doing its job," he emphasized.
