Multiple Dutch judges confirm: not your bank password, not your fiat. It puts on a limit on how much banks have to protect customers from their own recklessness, e.g. installing AnyDesk and giving your password to someone on the phone.
IIUC they're getting 85% back from Bunq bank, but they wanted more.
Sadly this is a numbers game. Most people most of the time might not fall for this scam, but they just need to hit some people at a bad time when they're less alert. That makes them look reckless in retrospect, but I wouldn't jump to the conclusion that you would never make that mistake. You have to defend against these attack all the time, they only need to succeed once.
