A Vologda woman became a victim of scammers and took out several loans worth more than 2.5 million rubles

A 43-year-old resident of the regional capital transferred all funds received on credit to “safe” accounts.

As the Vologda resident told the police, for 12 days she communicated with scammers via cell phone, via the Internet and in instant messenger. Followed all instructions. She was sure that the “supervisor” called her first. Then an “FSB officer” joined the conversation.

Under the pretext of stopping suspicious financial transactions, the woman was convinced to apply for loans from four different banks, and then cash out the funds and transfer them to “safe” accounts.

So, in total, the woman processed and transferred 2,727,400 rubles to the scammers.
