What you've described is called an advanced-fee scam.

It is a fraud. They are trying to scam you of 1,395 euros.

If they call you again: do not give them any money and do not give them any personal information.

It has been my pleasure to assist you today with your information needs. It is my goal that you are satisfied.

What are your options now?
