A 50-year-old local resident who became a victim of remote fraudsters turned to the Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia for the Lensky District of the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia). A false bank employee called the man and said that his savings were in danger, so they needed to be urgently cashed out and transferred to the so-called "safe account".
A criminal case was initiated on this fact on the grounds of a crime under Part 4 of Article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. Establishing all the circumstances of the incident, the criminal investigation officers found out that from the phone numbers of the fraudsters who stole the victim's savings, calls were received to several dozen more deceived citizens, including in the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia), in the Pskov region, in the Krasnodar Territory and other regions of the country.
As a result of the operational-search measures, the Yakut police, together with colleagues from the city of Sochi, established the location of one of the participants in the criminal scheme, who played the role of a cashier, a 33-year-old native of Moscow. An investigative team was sent to the Krasnodar Territory from Yakutia, which, with the assistance of the local National Guard, detained the attacker in a shopping center in the capital of resorts.
It was preliminarily established that since the beginning of August this year, the suspect has cashed out about 35 million rubles in various financial organizations of the Krasnodar Territory. At the same time, the man resorted to the help of gullible single women, in the process of courting whom he transferred fraudulently obtained money to their bank cards under various pretexts, and then asked to cash them and transfer them to him. Currently, over 12 million rubles have been arrested, which are in accounts controlled by the attacker.
The defendant was chosen a preventive measure in the form of detention. In the coming days, he will be transferred to the Republic of Sakha (Yakutia).
Currently, the police, together with colleagues from other regions of Russia, are conducting further operational-search measures and investigative actions aimed at establishing additional episodes of illegal activities of the detainee, as well as other participants in the criminal scheme.
