The criminals were hiding behind the "Elvira Nabiullina program to save pensioners."
Scammers started calling 69-year-old Elena Pavlovna in the summer. The criminals introduced themselves as investigators and reported that someone was trying to take out a loan in Elena's name. But there was also good news for the woman: according to callers, the head of the Central Bank, Elvira Nabiullina, opened a program to save pensioners. Elena Pavlovna was assigned a special "guide from the Central Bank", who told the pensioner what to do.
At first, scammers drove the woman to different bank branches so that she could withdraw her savings and send money to a "safe account". In early August, the criminals decided to hit the jackpot: they said that Elena should sell the apartment on Novy Arbat. And it's better for a pensioner to live outside the city, next to a friend. The criminals conducted the transaction for two months, helping Elena Pavlovna with a realtor, and even with a new residence permit.
As a result, on October 2, the woman received 21 million rubles from buyers. An "escort from the Central Bank" explained to her that the money should be transferred to a special courier using the code word "Prague". So Elena did. Interestingly, even after that, the scammers did not lag behind the woman and forced her to transfer them another half a million. The total damage is about 25 million rubles.
