A resident of Novorossiysk decided to make money on cryptocurrency and transferred 12 million rubles to scammers
Thus, an unknown person sent a letter to a 40-year-old man living in the Hero City, introduced himself as an "investment manager" and offered to earn money by buying cryptocurrency. The woman created an account and deposited money into her online account, hoping to make a big profit.
First, she withdrew funds from the account and paid the bills. The victim tops up his cryptocurrency wallet and checks the interest he receives every day. However, when the victim tried to withdraw the "income", it turned out that the account was closed and the money could not be withdrawn.
Over three months, the victim transferred 12 million rubles to the fraudster, 10 million of which were issued as a loan. A criminal case has been opened on the fact of fraud, the press service of the regional police department reported.
Let me remind you that earlier, residents of Krasnodar fell for the trick of telephone scammers. A stranger called her via messenger and introduced himself as an employee of the Central Bank. He said that the scammers were taking out loans in the name of the interlocutor and in order to prevent this, he personally persuaded her to take out a loan from the bank in the amount of 2 million 155 thousand rubles.
