In Russia, the monthly limit of money transfer to the accounts of persons from the fraudulent base of the Central Bank was limited

From May 15, 2025, a law entered into force in Russia that will limit the capabilities of dropper to withdraw and cash out money, the Central Bank said.

If the client gets into the regulator’s base about fraudulent operations, but the bank will decide not to suspend service, he will not be able to transfer to himself or other users more than 100 thousand rubles a month. If the information is in the base of the regulator from law enforcement agencies, the bank is obliged to block cards and access to the online bank.

The restrictions do not apply to payments to legal entities, noted in the Central Bank. That is, the user will be able, for example, to buy goods on marketplaces or pay for services.

If the client wants to make a transfer worth more than 100 thousand rubles, he must contact the bank with a passport. In order to appeal the hit in the regulator’s base, you must apply to your bank (he will redirect the application to the Central Bank) or send the application to the regulator through the Internet reception.

Recall that the Regulation on the fight against droppers is spelled out in the Law on the “cooling period” on consumer loans, which in February 2025 was signed by Russian President Vladimir Putin. In March 2025, the Ministry of Construction proposed to oblige banks to pay compensation to the victims of dropper. The measure will be included in a new package of amendments to combat fraud. Then the Central Bank said that he was discussing the idea of ​​introducing a restriction on the number of cards issued for a person to combat droppers – for example, up to five in one bank.
