The purchase of wheels ended with the initiation of a criminal case

The police of the Guryev district was contacted by a 31-year-old resident of the village of Bolshaya Isakovo, who lost money trying to buy car wheels via the Internet. This is reported by the press service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs in the Kaliningrad region.

According to the agency, the man found an ad for the sale of wheels in one of the social networks and contacted the seller through the messenger. In the process of correspondence, an unknown person convinced the buyer to make an advance payment.

Having believed the interlocutor, the applicant transferred the money through the bank’s mobile application to the specified account. But after receiving the funds, the attacker stopped communicating, and the victim never received the goods.

The investigator of the Ministry of Internal Affairs on this fact opened a criminal case under part 2 of Article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation “Fraud”. Police officers carry out measures to identify persons involved in the crime.
