In Chuvashia, a student lost more than 75 thousand rubles, trying to close microloans

In Chuvashia, a third-year student of Kanash College became the victim of a fraudster who offered help in repaying microloans. As a result, the girl lost more than 75 thousand rubles, and another 10 loans were issued in her name.

According to the Ministry of Internal Affairs for the Chuvash Republic, the student met on the Internet with a young man who introduced himself as a financial expert. He proposed a new loan to close previous debts and cancel credit obligations.

The girl gave the interlocutor passport photos, bank card data, phone number and email address. In addition, she reported codes from SMS messages. Having access to the necessary information, the attacker stole money and issued new loans.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs warns that offers of financial assistance on dating sites can be fraudulent. You should not transfer personal data to strangers, report codes from SMS and apply for loans at their request.
