A resident of Semyonov lost 9,000 rubles by believing in the advertisement of "easy earnings."
In the city of Semyonov, a criminal case has been initiated regarding fraud against a local resident born in 1974. She became a victim of internet scammers who promised quick income. The woman, while browsing advertisements online, came across an enticing offer for "easy earnings through investments." The promises of high returns with little effort piqued her interest, and she decided to give it a try. Following the instructions from a dubious resource, the victim transferred funds amounting to 9,000 rubles. However, she did not receive the promised profit, and access to her account and communication with the "brokers" was lost. A criminal case has been initiated based on part 1 of article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (Fraud). The sanction of this article provides for a maximum punishment of imprisonment for up to 2 years. Law enforcement agencies remind the necessity of being vigilant when choosing investment projects: - Do not trust advertisements promising "guaranteed high income in a short time." - Check the license and reputation of the company — all legal brokers are registered in the registry of the Bank of Russia. - Never transfer money to personal cards or anonymous wallets. - Discuss suspicious offers with relatives or consult a specialist. If you or your loved ones have become victims of internet fraud, immediately report to the police at phones 02, 112, or 102 (from a mobile phone).
