Police in Dudelange intervened on Monday afternoon to prevent an attempted scam on Rue des Champs, following reports from a resident.
The incident began when a local resident was contacted by an individual claiming to represent the security firm LuxTrust. The impersonator informed the potential victim that a representative would visit their home to collect their bank cards.
A police patrol despatched to the scene intercepted the suspect and seized their mobile phone. Subsequent investigation revealed the suspect was operating with an accomplice, whom authorities have so far been unable to locate.
The arrested suspect was brought before a magistrate on Tuesday morning.
