A Krasnoyarsk resident wanted to make money, but became involved in a case involving 2.5 million rubles

In Krasnoyarsk, a criminal investigation has been completed against a young local resident who gave scammers access to his bank accounts. This was reported to the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Krasnoyarsk Territory.

According to the police, in November last year, a Krasnoyarsk resident born in 2007 received an offer to earn money from a stranger in a messenger. He needed to register bank cards for himself and transfer management of them to a third party. For the promised 16 thousand rubles, the young man opened four bank accounts and provided the attackers with remote access to them, as well as to personal accounts.

Later, these cards received four transfers from residents of the Republic of Crimea, LPR, Tatarstan and the Belgorod region. All of them became victims of scammers. The total amount of damage amounted to 2.5 million rubles. At the same time, the Krasnoyarsk resident himself never received any money for his “work.” After the access was transferred, the “employer” stopped communicating.

An investigator from police department No. 3 of the Krasnoyarsk Municipal Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia opened a criminal case on illegal circulation of payment funds. The investigation has already been completed. The sanction of the article provides for a maximum penalty of up to 3 years in prison. The accused was given a preventive measure in the form of a written undertaking not to leave the place and proper behavior.
