Kostroma police detained a fraudster who sold non-existent tickets for Lokomotiv matches

The scammer demanded a full prepayment and stopped communicating.

Kostroma police came on the trail of a fraudster who profited from the sale of non-existent tickets for the matches of the Yaroslavl Lokomotiv. Details are reported by the press service of the MIA of Russia in the region.

The attacker traded tickets, deliberately underestimating their cost to attract buyers. From hooked people, he demanded one hundred percent advance payment, and immediately after receiving money, he blocked customers and did not get in touch.

By this day it is known that at least one resident of Kostroma and several residents of Yaroslavl suffered from the seller-deceiver. Several criminal cases were initiated against the man under the article on fraud.

The detained fraudster is far from the only one who profited from the sale of non-existent tickets to hockey matches. Earlier we reported that in this way enriched 22-year-old resident of Yaroslavl, earning a total of 400 thousand rubles. Read more in our material.
