Thieves stealing from construction site

Cheeky – but not so clever – thieves stealing from scaffolding rental group at construction site.

March 23, 2013 someone is calling Ramirent and pretending to be an employee at a major contractor. The person orders planks and other scaffolding equipment or a market value of kr. 300,000 and uses in this regard the customer’s corrrect requisition number for a construction site in Copenhagen.

Immediately after the delivery – Ramirent is contacted by a local source who says that there is some scaffolding equipment in a barn in Ringsted, presumably Ramirent Scaffolding. Ramirents regional manager Henrik Osbaeck seeks out the adress together with the police, where they ascertain that the equipment belongs to Ramirent. The barn is rented by a person who is renting it out to another party which has not completed the lease form.
