The Prosecutor's Office of the Kirov Region protected a pensioner from remote scammers.

      The Nemsky District Prosecutor's Office conducted an inspection of compliance with legislation in the field of combating crimes involving IT technologies. During the inspection, it emerged that a local pensioner had fallen victim to fraudsters. The perpetrators, using her personal data, remotely concluded two loan agreements without the woman's consent.

      A criminal case for fraud was opened under Article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. However, the district prosecutor, without waiting for the conclusion of the investigation, filed a lawsuit seeking to have the transactions declared invalid.

      The court upheld the position of the supervisory authority. The prosecutor's claim was recognized as lawful and justified, and the pensioner's property rights were restored.

      The Prosecutor's Office reminds residents of the region of the need to exercise caution with personal data and to be attentive when conducting remote financial transactions.
