Scammers are sending fake letters about fines from the traffic police.
Fraud cases involving fake emails supposedly from the Russian traffic police (GIBDD) have increased in Russia. Residents receive messages via email or messengers claiming an alleged traffic violation. The messages state that an urgent fine payment is needed. Usually, a document resembling an official notice is attached to the message. The fake may contain real names, vehicle numbers, and other personal data to create the illusion of authenticity. The email also includes a button to pay the fine. Clicking the link may lead the user to a website mimicking government or bank services' interface, where they are asked for bank card details and SMS codes. In some cases, the link directs to malicious resources that secretly install viruses on the device. These can intercept passwords, access banking apps and messengers, and use the camera and microphone. Legitimate fine notifications are only sent through official channels, such as the Gosuslugi portal. The Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs warns against clicking dubious links and entering personal data on unfamiliar sites.
