What was the supposed crime the person was conducting? Is it illegal in Germany to falsely claim to be a reporter?
- jjbinx007 6y agoI'm wondering if the guy could claim to be a citizen journalist.
- Arnt 6y agoHe did claim to be an employee of a specific publisher, writing for a specific big magazine.
- Arnt 6y agoIt'll probably say something about arglistige Täuschung, versuchten Betrug, that kind of thing. The magazine's publisher would probably add impersonation to the list. "I work for Google and we'd would like to … with you", "I write for the Spiegel and would like to interview you for …", "I'm a Nigerian prince and need your help to …", deception all three. That one of them involves a specific profession is not relevant.
