Callers have reported a well-dressed foreign couple with a child in a vehicle, would contact would be Good Samaritans. The couple would then claim to have no money for needed gas and food. The couple would then offer to exchange their jewelry for currentcy. They would claim this jewelry was 18k. These items have been fake.

The suspect couple is beleived to be using several different rental vehicle with out of state tags.

  3. If this post came from the Berlin Police Department, they should send their PIO back to high school to learn how to write and spell (and perhaps proofread). That's and embarrassing display of writing.
