Touria, a divorced forty-year-old mother of two boys, was the victim of a financial scam by a fake online banker who managed to extort from her the sum of 20,000 euros to, he says, “support the Palestinians against Israel.

Of Moroccan origin, Touria, who lives in a modest apartment in Plaisance-du-Touch, had just obtained 31,000 euros from her ex-husband, after divorce proceedings which lasted twelve long years. Unfortunately, the mother finds herself with almost nothing. She was defrauded of 20,000 euros, a sum that she believed to have deposited in an account opened online on an HSBC bank website.
