In Tambov, a 16-year-old Muscovite took a bag of foreign currency from a dipped guy

The Investigative Department of the Investigative Committee of Russia in the Tambov region charged a 16-year-old resident of Moscow. She is suspected of fraud committed by a group of persons on a preliminary conspiracy on an especially large scale.

According to investigators, on November 7, the girl, on the instructions of an unidentified curator, arrived by taxi from Moscow to Tambov. There she took from the young man a bag with foreign currency - about 1.5 million rubles. The money belonged to his close relative, who was allegedly called from the bank and advised for safety to transfer savings to a “collector” for transfer to a “safe account”.

Back to Moscow, the girl was driving the same taxi, but the police stopped the car at the traffic police station. Finding a bag of money, they took it to law enforcement for investigation.

The investigation is ongoing: investigators establish all the circumstances of the crime, other participants and possible additional episodes of the fraudulent scheme.
