Kernrechtsfrage
Whether the deception in the wash-wash scheme was arglistig despite alleged victim contribution.
Extrahierter Entscheid
The deception remained arglistig; the victim had taken basic precautions and could not be left with sole responsibility for the success of a highly staged fraud.
Extrahierte Begründung
The scheme used extensive machinations, documents, role play and repeated reinforcement of the lie. The victim made inquiries and traveled to Switzerland to verify the story, but the staged setting prevented effective verification. Victim contribution only negates arglist in exceptional cases where basic precautions were ignored.
