In the Krasnoyarsk Territory, scammers intimidated the schoolboy and forced them to transfer more than 150 thousand rubles

In Kansk, the Krasnoyarsk Territory, a 15-year-old boy, “saving the money of mother”, transferred a large amount from her accounts.

As the police found out, the criminals began their scheme for deception with a call from an unknown person who informed the teenager about the need to update the electronic diary and asked to dictate the login. Then, a “security specialist” called from another phone number, who announced the entrance to the personal account of the minor on the “State Services” portal, and then his mother. The swindler said that all the information from the service can be used to apply for new accounts and financing terrorists from them. So that she was an accomplice of criminals, the unknown person demanded urgently “legalize” all the money in the family, but not to tell the “victim” about what happened, since a few days later the entire amount will return back.

“Further with the teenager involved in a rescue mission, the scammers talked in messengers. During the day – both day and night – they did not leave him alone. Using psychological pressure, they forced to secretly take the mother’s phone and transfer 153 thousand rubles from her credit and salary cards. A resident of Kansk discovered the loss of money the next day, when the son became interested in the mechanism for returning funds to bank accounts and admitted in his actions, ”the State Department of Internal Affairs said.

Currently, a criminal case has been instituted on the fact of fraud under Part 2 of Art. 159 of the Criminal Code, an investigation is underway.
