In Moscow, law enforcement agencies detained more than ten clients of the Bybit cryptocurrency exchange who conducted P2P transactions on the platform and accidentally became counterparties to the monastery's money thieves. This is reported by the Cartesius law agency.

According to them, the situation is connected with the theft of 26.4 million rubles from the accounts of the Marfo-Mariinsky Monastery of Mercy in early May. Representatives of the monastery itself said that one of the employees was the victim of fraud.

The money was withdrawn through many accounts throughout the Russian Federation. In particular, from May 1 to May 7, they were transferred from the accounts of Raiffeisen Bank to the Bybit exchange.

Lawyers ask all clients of the trading platform who during this period received funds on their cards from a user named Anisimov A. O., or from the card of the sender Maxim Sergeevich Kraft, to contact them in Telegram. At the same time, they did not rule out that the range of banks and crypto exchanges involved may be wider.

"Instead of making requests to the exchange, finding out who they worked with, and asking questions to these people, the recipients of money are simply sent to prison, whether they are drops or traders themselves," Cartesius commented.

Now the legal team is collecting information on the already detained traders.
