The Sovetsky (Minsk) District Department of the Investigative Committee is investigating a criminal case of fraud committed on an especially large scale.
The story of the grandiose deception began in October 2023 with the acquaintance of two lonely people on the Internet. Communication between pen pals almost immediately grew into a romantic relationship - a 45-year-old Minsk resident was seriously charmed by a 30-year-old man. It turned out that the virtual lover has a rich biography: 7 years of service as an intelligence officer in the GRU, a difficult childhood without parents and, on top of that, a serious illness - cancer, which deprived the promising employee of a successful career. All that was left for the "battered by life" resident of the capital was to earn himself expensive treatment by hard work - he constantly traveled long distances and underwent chemotherapy courses in between work.
The woman empathized with the tragic fate, as it seemed to her, of her man. The Minsk woman in love was very impressed by the stories of her pen pal, in addition, she was convinced of the truthfulness of his words when a personal meeting took place between them. One short visit was the starting point in the further development of events and the deep feelings of the newly-made couple acquired a mercantile character.
In November 2023, the man, according to him, went on a flight. The lovers continued to actively correspond, but communication between them was tense. The fact is that the guy often complained about his well-being. It turned out that against the background of the previous disease, serious complications have developed, which require immediate treatment. The summons from the "beloved" was accompanied by the phrases "I don't have long left" or "everything is clear and understandable with me", which is why the Minsk resident was in a state of constant stress and worries about the health of her future companion. He, in turn, continued to thicken the colors.
One of the methods of manipulating feelings was a long silence on the part of the defendant. When he did get in touch after the break, the woman found out that the guy was in the hospital and his condition was rapidly deteriorating. The treatment is expensive and long, in addition, the man flatly refused to return to therapy in Belarus. Finally, the prospect for the future took real shape: a seriously ill lover asked for financial help from his girlfriend.
Since January 2024, the Minsk resident began to replenish the bank accounts of the defendant. The reasons have always been different: imported medicines, a course of chemotherapy and subsequent rehabilitation, paid medical care. Allegedly, the treatment took place in Kazakhstan and the prognosis for recovery, unfortunately, was disappointing. By that time, the Minsk resident had already transferred more than 32 thousand rubles, but now a large amount was required for the operation.
Having lost her mind from love, the resident of the capital simply did everything to save her partner. She took out several credits and loans, persuaded him to return to the country to continue treatment at home. For his part, the "beloved" man constantly complained about life and demanded to continue transferring money.
The Minsk resident saw the light only in May 2024, when she received a disappointing SMS message from a stranger on her phone. The girl said that she has the same old history and failed relationship with the defendant. The woman found out that she was far from being the "one" in his heart. Quirky The scammer has been making love on the Internet for 8 years and then begged for money from his girlfriends for various needs. He mainly referred to a fatal illness, job loss, or a serious life situation. The marriage swindler had several such "future wives", including on the territory of other states.
Having added up all the pros and cons, the deceived Minsk resident decided to seek help from law enforcement agencies. During the operational-search activities, the "marriage swindler" was detained by police officers. However, for the investigator, he prepared a different version of what happened. The defendant did not deny that he told his girlfriend about a possible illness, but the topic did not develop further in the correspondence. Other details of his eventful biography, according to him, can be regarded as the truth. He allegedly had no idea that the victim had been transferring money to him for several months. A resident of the capital believed that such large amounts were payroll.
Investigators established for certain that for the image of an honest but unhappy person, the accused developed a standard scenario: he borrowed a uniform with awards as props for photographs from his father, who in fact turned out to be alive. By the way, there was no fatal disease either. The defendant appealed with a single appeal for medical help and took the doctors' advice about his health literally: he came up with a tragic legend about incurable oncology.
The women who suffered from fraudulent actions created a chat in the messenger, where they shared with each other the sad experience of meeting the "unfortunate beloved". Each of them transferred money to him to buy drugs or for a course of chemotherapy. And for everyone, he was an attractive man, a former GRU intelligence officer with a serious illness. Uniting by interests, the girls tried to bring the swindler to the surface, but he did not react to the collective censure, but simply looked for new victims.
In just a few months, the Minsk resident transferred more than 47 thousand rubles to help her "dying" friend. Having analyzed the information received, the investigation concluded that the accused could maintain such "relationships" with many women.
Based on the evidence collected in the case, the defendant was charged under Part 4 of Article 209 (fraud committed on an especially large scale) of the Criminal Code of the Republic of Belarus. A preventive measure in the form of detention was applied to him.
Currently, the man's involvement in the commission of similar crimes is being established.
The investigation of the criminal case continues.
