The Main Department of Digital Development of the Preliminary investigation of the Investigative Committee together with the State Unitary Enterprise of the Ministry of Internal Affairs established the involvement of a 19-year-old resident of Vitebsk in the illegal distribution of bank account access details. They were used by criminal groups to embezzle funds of Belarusian citizens via the Internet.
For each "transaction" for the sale of bank account access details, the young man received money in the amount of 25 to 140 rubles. The total criminal income amounted to more than 4,000 Belarusian rubles.
In this criminal activity, the young man involved more than 60 individuals who also received illegal income for transferring their passport data and subscriber numbers to register their personal accounts in Internet banking. At the same time, some of them provided assistance to the suspect and looked for new "drops" for him.
Currently, 15 criminal cases have been initiated against the main person involved under article 222 of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Belarus. The sanction of the article provides for a penalty of up to 10 years in prison. The actions of other persons who participated in the criminal scheme will be given a legal assessment during the preliminary investigation.
During the interrogations, the suspect and the persons involved in illegal activities told in detail about the illegal way of earning money and repented of what they had done.
The investigation continues.
