Krasnoyarsk residents in social networks complain about young street photographers who offer to take a picture, and then require payment. The telegram channel “KRSK DAY BEARD!” Drawn attention to this.

According to the townspeople, the scheme looks like this: on Mira Avenue and other central locations, young people with cameras are suitable for passers -by and ask permission to photograph them. After several frames, they offer to throw the pictures and ask for Donat or Gratitude. If the amount is, in their opinion, too small, the tone of the conversation changes sharply.

“A friend held out a hundred rubles, there was no more cash. But after that girl [фотограф] She changed her face and began to speak with the collision that she had a photo shoot from 500 rubles, and was also supposed to thank the amount of 500, ”the telegram channel quoted one of the girls.

According to eyewitnesses, on weekends you can find up to 30 such photographers. In the comments to the post, users report that among them there are adolescents of 14-15 years old, and the scheme itself resembles a network structure where young people are hired through ads.

Newslab really found on a popular announcement website the vacancies of a “street photographer without experience from 14 years”. The employer promises a rate of 300 rubles per hour, gives professional equipment and conducts training. Krasnoyarsk residents are sure that adolescents teach the dishonest way to earn money, and then take a percentage.

Many, as noted in the post, pay due to a sense of awkwardness, but the quality of the pictures often leaves much to be desired. Some said that in the end they gave up to 1400 rubles for such photo shoots.
