The rest believed in the “safe account”: 90-year-old tula lost 918 thousand rubles, 46-year-old woman from Plava district – 400 thousand, 24-year-old resident of the Soviet district – 130 thousand.

Earlier, MK in Tula reported on a new fraud scheme: scammers pose as bank employees, talk about allegedly suspicious transactions and threaten to block the account if a person does not comply with their requirements.
