Chet Frilich was so intent on not getting scammed, he got scammed.
A caller told the 76-year-old Concord resident on March 2 that he was from Xfinity's cybersecurity department. Frilich's Xfinity Wi-Fi was allegedly compromised, as the man explained someone in Nigeria hacked into Frilich's computer and used his information and $5,000 from his bank account to open a crypto account in another country.
'The day after the money was given to a courier, I received an email from the 'Treasury Department' stating how much money was received and put it the secure wallet.'The process played out four or five times with different couriers. He ended up sending $182,000 in cash and gold . Another $8,500 has been listed by police as 'missing.''They knew my movements,' Frilich said.
