In June 2026, the defendant from his account ordered a processor worth 835.86 BYN on the marketplace. He had to pay for the goods upon receipt.

When it was delivered, the attacker went to the point of delivery of orders, opened the box for verification, and then quietly replaced the new processor with the old one brought with him. Then he refused to take the goods and returned it to the representative of the retail network for registration of the return.
