A group of criminals who fraudulently stole 7.6 million rubles will be tried in Krasnoyarsk.
The police said that in 2023, a man, who was 42 years old at that time, came up with a criminal scheme to obtain a bank loan. He involved a 39-year-old friend in the case. Together they found a Krasnoyarsk resident who was offered to get a bank loan for them. The attackers prepared fictitious documents about their place of work and income, which allowed them to take out a loan of 6 million rubles. The money was divided among themselves by “customers” who did not even plan to fulfill their loan obligations.
Since the scheme worked, the man decided to try it again, but with different performers. Another friend and two women in need of money came to help him.
“The men settled their accomplices in rented apartments, provided them with food, clothing and hairdressing services. They also prepared documents containing false information about income, places of work and positions. Based on these certificates, the women entered into three loan agreements and received about 1.6 million rubles. The accomplices distributed the loan funds among themselves and used them at their own discretion,” the press service said.
Five defendants in this case have been charged with fraud (Parts 2, 4 of Article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation). One of the men and a woman are in custody, the rest are awaiting trial at home – a preventive measure was chosen for them in the form of a written undertaking not to leave the place and proper behavior.
