A pensioner born in 1956 contacted police department No. 2 of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs for the city of Astrakhan. The woman said that an unknown person called her and said that her niece had suffered a serious head injury and needed medical attention. Since the girl is in the hospital and cannot pay for the doctors’ services herself, she urgently needs to transfer 130,000 rubles.
Frightened for the health of her niece, an elderly Astrakhan woman collected the required amount in cash and gave it to the young man who came to her on the instructions of an unknown interlocutor. A couple of hours later, the woman contacted her relative, and she said that everything was fine with her, and the call came from scammers.
On the same day, three more elderly Astrakhan women turned to the police with similar statements, each of whom, according to the signs described, was visited by the same courier.
The Investigation Department of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs for the city of Astrakhan has opened criminal cases under Part 2 of Art. 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.
On duty, operatives of the department for solving IT crimes of the criminal investigation department of the city police detained a suspect - a 24-year-old Astrakhan resident who had previously been repeatedly convicted of theft. According to the main version of the investigation, an unknown person wrote to the person involved in a popular messenger, introducing herself as Elena and offering to earn money by picking up parcels with money and transferring them to the necessary accounts. He agreed, having previously sent the “employer” his photo with his passport and a video in which he introduced himself and showed his house and a sign with the address - these were the conditions of the “organization”.
The next day the first order arrived. He took a taxi paid for by his “employer” to the desired address, took the money from the pensioner and went to the nearest ATM. He kept 2,500 rubles for himself, and transferred the remaining 127,500 to the bank card number indicated in the dialogue. Realizing that he had become a participant in the crime, the defendant, remembering that he had provided self-incriminating videos to the “employer,” continued his illegal activities and, together with unknown people, deceived three more pensioners.
The total damage caused to elderly women amounted to 555,000 rubles, 23,000 of which he took for himself for the “work” performed. The criminal investigation continues. The defendant may face imprisonment for up to 5 years.
