Reports say that he managed to obtain as much as 120,000 € from one of his victims.
The man called himself Carlos M.E.N. and chose his 48 to 60 year old victims over the internet. After a time they were invited to spend some time with him in Tel Aviv.
‘I was welcomed like a queen’, said one of the victims who was then asked for money to reserve the wedding banquet. The man declares himself to be a Spaniard living in Tel Aviv, but police now think that he is named Michael S, and was born in Israel.
