In Afanasyevo, the prosecutor's office returned half a million to a pensioner through the court, stolen by fraudsters.
The Prosecutor's Office of the Afanasyevsky District helped an elderly local resident recover a large sum of money that was stolen from her by remote scammers. The amount in question is 530,000 rubles.
It all started when the 67-year-old woman fell for the tricks of the fraudsters and voluntarily transferred money to them. The police opened a criminal case under paragraph "g" part 3 of article 158 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (Theft committed from a bank account, as well as in relation to electronic money).
During the operational work, it was revealed that the stolen funds went to the accounts of so-called "droppers" — front persons who cash out other people's money. The droppers were found in the Kaliningrad region and the Chechen Republic.
Then the prosecutor's office got involved. The supervisory agency took into account that the victim is an elderly woman who, due to her age and life circumstances, cannot sue on her own. Therefore, the prosecutor filed a lawsuit in court for the recovery of unjust enrichment. Additionally, there were claims for interest on the use of other people's money.
The court granted the claims.
Now the prosecutor's office is monitoring the execution of the decision, ensuring that the pensioner receives her money back.
