Fraudulent police officers: Berlin warns of fake controls!
Berlin, Deutschland - On June 5, 2025, there were comprehensive criminal procedural measures against three members of the Berlin police and a 45-year-old other accused. These investigations are related to severe band theft and forgery of documents. The Berlin public prosecutor's office confirmed that the three officials are involved in a common fraud stitch, and in which drivers were decreased in cash as part of fake traffic controls. In this context, the Berlin police ask for support.
The relevant questions to citizens include whether they had to hand over cash without receipt during a traffic control of civilians or whether they were informed that there was an arrest warrant against them that they knew nothing about. Notes on this can be reported via the NotePortal of the Berlin
methodology of the fraudsters
The suspicion that there is a co-accused officer and the 45-year-olds are based on the assumption that they have brought money from drivers under the pretext of police traffic controls since April 2025. A particularly blatant case occurred on April 21, 2025 in Pankow, where 500 euros were collected. Another incident took place on May 8, 2025 in Charlottenburg, in which at least 8,000 euros were stolen. The group even used real police equipment that came from a former police officer who had not returned them.
Searches in several Berlin districts, including Spandau, Reinickendorf and Tempelhof-Schöneberg, showed numerous evidence, including mobile phones and records, which are now evaluated as part of the ongoing investigations. In addition, the suspects are also said to have produced official documents in hotel rooms and offered for sale. The police have already made targeted searches in four locations in Berlin to find stressful material.
reactions of the police
three arrested people are to be brought before an investigative judge at the Tiergarten district court on the same day. At the same time, the Berlin police are considering measures against the accused. It remains unclear how many citizens overall victims of this fraud stitch. The exact sum of the stolen money is not yet known. The investigation continues to identify further details and possibly other victims.
Overall, the incidents about the alleged fake traffic controls show how fraudsters can act within the police apparatus and what damage they do in society. The Berlin authorities now face the challenge of regaining the trust of the population to the police. Further information and updates on these investigations are via t-online.de and rbb24 available.
