Scam

Please can anyone advise My husband and I are 100% sure it’s a scam My elderly father in law has just advised us he invested a very large sum of money into crypto. He was called by a man who said he could get a large return. This man who says he’s in Denmark now claims that £20k needs to be paid to the danish tax office before his returns of £700k can be released ( can’t believe I’m writing this as screams scam) Now a few hours later my fil has said the man now wants £5k to release the funds!! Any advice of who to call, the police? The bank fraud team? My father in law is just not listening to us at all submitted by /u/Ok-Hope161 [link] [comments]
