Vologzhanka lost 1.5 million rubles on the pretext of “replacing” money

The police of Vologda appealed to a local resident with a statement of fraud. The woman, born in 1950, received a phone call from bank and law enforcement officials. Before that, Vologzhan closed the bank account. “Experts” assured her that the bills she received were “labeled.” They were required to exchange them for ordinary ones to avoid serious consequences.

The woman began to fulfill all the requirements. A courier came to her, to whom she gave more than one million rubles. After some time, the fraudsters lured another 500 thousand rubles from her under the same scheme. Only after that, the elderly woman began to doubt the truth of the story and went to the police. A criminal case has been opened on this fact.
