The Main Directorate for Digital Development of the Preliminary Investigation of the Investigative Committee, together with the Main Directorate for Criminal Procedure of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, detained a 29-year-old woman and a 19-year-old guy who illegally distributed data for access to settlement accounts and details of bank payment cards to criminal groups. The latter used access to bank account management in order to provide financing for drug trafficking and Internet fraud against Belarusian citizens.
For each sold bank card or data for accessing a current account, the defendants received funds in the amount of 50 to 130 rubles.
They involved more than 100 of their friends and acquaintances in criminal activities, who also received illegal income for issuing bank cards in their name or transferring their passport data and subscriber numbers to register personal accounts in Internet banking.
Based on the collected evidence, the defendants were charged under Part 2 of Art. 222 (illicit circulation of means of payment) of the Criminal Code of Belarus. With the sanction of the prosecutor, a preventive measure in the form of detention was applied to them.
During the interrogation, the defendants confessed and repented of their deeds.
The criminal investigation is ongoing.
For reference: The sanction of the above article provides for punishment of up to 10 years in prison.
The Investigative Committee recalls that the criminal law provides for liability for the illegal distribution of bank payment card details and authentication data, through which it is possible to gain access to bank accounts, out of mercenary motives.
