A resident of Kirov transferred almost 2.8 million rubles to scammers.

      According to the police, communication with the scammers lasted about two weeks. At first, an unknown person called the woman, introducing himself as a colleague, and informed her about an alleged check of employees' personal data. The resident of Kirov provided the requested information.

      After that, she began to be contacted by fake employees of "Gosuslugi," the Central Bank, and the FSB. They convinced the woman that her data had fallen into the hands of criminals who were allegedly trying to take out loans in her name.

      To "save her money," the resident of Kirov was offered to independently take out loans and transfer the funds to a so-called "protected account." Following the instructions, the woman sent the scammers 690,000 rubles of her personal savings and another 2,050,000 rubles taken out as a loan.

      Later, the victim realized that she had fallen victim to a scam and reported it to the police. A criminal case has been initiated.
