An 80-year-old man calls the police and reports that he has been a victim of a scam in his home in Sköndal in southern Stockholm.

The man is said to have received a phone call from a person claiming to represent "Svea Inkasso". The person claimed that someone had tried to buy three phones with the man's credit card. He was then transferred and asked to log in with his security token, which he did. At that point, he was told that they also needed to collect the card.

A short while later, the doorbell rings at the man's home and he hands over the card to the person who came to collect it.

The police are searching for the suspected perpetrator.
