Nikas Safronov was hacked by scammers who pretended to be Wikipedia employees…
Nikas Safronov was hacked by scammers – they introduced themselves as Wikipedia employees, gained access to contacts and attacked star recipients in order to steal data and at the same time borrow 20-30k. Oleg Gazmanov saved everyone.
According to our information, the scammers reached Nikas the other day. They introduced themselves as guys from Wikipedia, reported an error in the article about him and offered to correct it together – Honored Artist of Russia to People's Artist. In the process, they obtained the codes they needed, hacked Gosuslugi, a WhatsApp account, and inundated Safronov’s interlocutors with requests to promptly donate 20-30k rubles before tomorrow.
The first victim could have been Oleg Gazmanov, but no. The Russian stage acrobat performed an elegant somersault – he pretended to fall for it, and like an esaul, the esaul contacted Nikas and informed him about the scam.
As Nikas himself told us, financial losses were avoided. Now, together with his son Luka, he is solving problems: he has already driven to the MFC, changed passwords, blocked cards. And he says: don’t transfer money to him. You can, of course, but he won’t return it.
