In Evpatoria, convicted 19-year-old for transferring a bank card to fraudsters

The magistrate of the judicial precinct No. 39 of the Yevpatoria judicial district found a 19-year-old local resident guilty of illegal circulation of payment funds. This was reported in the press service of the Prosecutor’s office of Crimea.

According to the court, the young man opened an account in one of the branches of the bank in Yevpatoria, after which he transferred the card and password from it to another person for a reward of 10 thousand rubles. He understood that the account would be involved in a criminal scheme.

Actions qualified under part 3 of article 187 of the criminal code of the Russian Federation — illegal turnover of means of payment. The court imposed a penalty of 80 hours of compulsory work.

In Crimea, courts regularly hear cases of transferring bank cards to fraudsters, and penalties range from fines to mandatory work and suspended terms.

For example, in July 2026, a resident of the Saka district issued a card and transferred its details to third parties to steal money from citizens. For his role, he received 9 thousand rubles from curators. The court found him guilty under part 4 of article 187 of the criminal code of the Russian Federation and sentenced to a fine of 100 thousand rubles.

And in August 2026 in the Saki district, another man was convicted for transferring the card to fraudsters. 43-year-old local resident at the request of a friend for 1 thousand rubles issued a card in his name and handed it along with the data to enter the mobile application. The court ordered 180 hours of mandatory work.
