A resident of the Uzden district believed in the threat of a criminal case and became a courier of fraudsters

Criminal investigation officers of the Minsk police identified a 19-year-old resident of the Uzden district, who believed the phone fraudsters and agreed to work for them. This was reported in the press service of the Mingory Executive Committee, writes sb.by.

The attackers contacted the girl on the phone and deceived her on behalf of the mobile operator, and then intimidated with criminal liability. To get a good characterization, she agreed to follow the instructions of the curators.

The victim took money and jewelry from the deceived Minsk residents three times. However, each time faced obstacles. In the first case, not all jewelry was accepted in the pawnshop, because of which the courier was unable to transfer all the money to the fraudsters. For the second time, the bank froze the transaction for 9 thousand, considering it suspicious. And during the last assignment, the girl with the money received was detained by police officers.

Money totaling more than 15 thousand seized and will be returned to the victims of fraudsters. All the facts are checked.
