Kirov pensioner did not succumb to fraudsters and saved 2.5 million
A 75-year-old resident of Kirov miraculously escaped a major financial loss. Unknown criminals tried to convince her to transfer money to a so-called "secure account" using a common scheme of telephone deception.
It all started with a messenger call from an alleged representative of the energy supply company. The man said that a planned replacement of the electric meter was needed, and convinced the pensioner to provide him with the SNILS data for paperwork. After that, other people began calling the woman, posing as employees of various services — from Rosfinmonitoring to the FSB.
Each of them assured her that her bank accounts were under threat and that the money needed to be urgently transferred to a "safe place." They tried to intimidate the pensioner with a possible loan in her name and other fictitious dangers.
Despite the pressure, the woman did not make hasty decisions. Worldly wisdom and common sense helped her to recognize the deception in time and save 2.5 million rubles.
The police have opened a criminal case into the attempted fraud on a particularly large scale. Law enforcement officers identify the callers.
