Investigation continues for the 23-year-old French teenager who disappeared in Lisbon

It was reported that French citizen Marvyn George has not been in contact with his family in Lisbon since August 22. While his family was coming to Portugal, a warning was also issued against fraudsters who tried to turn the missing call into an opportunity.

It has been reported that there has been no news from Marvyn George, a 23-year-old French citizen living in Lisbon, since August 22. A missing person investigation is being carried out in Portugal upon the application of his relatives.

According to the information his family gave to the French press, George had been living and working in Lisbon since July 2025. His mother, Céline George, said that the last message she received from her son was on the evening of August 22; He said subsequent messages were not read.

According to the family, it was reported that George had not gone to work since August 24. It was stated that the phone line could not be reached after August 27. It was stated that the identity document of the missing young man was found, but he could not be reached yet.

It was reported that the French authorities were also informed and the family planned to come to Portugal and meet with the police. The news reviewed does not contain any confirmed information about George being found or the reason for his disappearance.

The family also announced that the call for help made on social media was exploited by malicious people. Relatives say they received messages from people posing as police officers or kidnappers, demanding money.

Those who think they have information about the missing person should contact the competent police units directly instead of sharing money or personal information on social media.

PTNewsHub review

We wish him to be reunited with his mother and family as soon as possible. In such a sensitive period, one should also be careful against fraudsters who exploit the pain of families with false demands for information and money.

Practical knowledge

Anyone with verifiable information about the missing person should call 112 in emergencies or contact PSP or PJ directly. Before sending money to requests such as "I know your location", "send money on behalf of the police" or similar requests received on social media, verification must be made through official channels.
