A resident of Obninsk gave fraudsters more than 2 million rubles

He received a call from an unknown woman who introduced herself as a lawyer for one of the law enforcement agencies.

“She informed the citizen that he and his relatives are accused of aiding terrorism and can be prosecuted,” the regional Ministry of Internal Affairs said.

To avoid prosecution, the man was instructed to hand over the savings of 1,500,000 rubles stored at home to the courier, promising to return the bills later.
