A resident of Sverdlovsk lost almost 3 million rubles during the “purchase” of a foreign car via the Internet

In the Luhansk People’s Republic, a 41-year-old resident of Sverdlovsk saw an advertisement on the website for the sale of a Toyota Corolla car. She followed the link to the group selling cars in the messenger. There, the woman contacted the “manager” – he promised to bring the vehicle from another country, asked to send passport data for “execution of the contract” and sent her “documents” for signature.

As a result, the woman transferred 2,797,390 rubles, after which the pseudo-manager stopped communicating. Then the woman realized that she was deceived, and turned to law enforcement.

On this fact, the police opened a criminal case (part 4 of article 159 of the criminal code). They're looking for a con man.
