A Kirov resident "bought" a mirror for his car but ended up without money and the part.
The Kirov City Department of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia received a statement from a 42-year-old local resident. The car enthusiast reported that three weeks ago he was looking for a rearview mirror for his car on one of the online platforms. A suitable option was found quickly, and he contacted the author of the ad. The seller agreed to send the item but set a condition — full prepayment. The buyer transferred 37,000 rubles to a bank card, but the spare part did not arrive by the agreed deadline. When the Kirov resident tried to clarify the delivery details, his interlocutor stopped responding. A criminal case has been initiated regarding this fact. Currently, the police are establishing the identity of the suspect. The Ministry of Internal Affairs reminds: when making remote purchases, one should not rush to transfer money to unfamiliar people. Many ad sites have a section for safe transactions, where the platform acts as an intermediary and guarantees the fulfillment of obligations by both parties. Using such a mechanism helps minimize the risks of becoming a victim of fraud.

The Deceit of the Sofa: Why 30 Minutes of Sitting is More Dangerous than 8 Hours of Office Work
We are used to thinking that the main enemy of health is the total amount of time spent sitting. However, data from a large cohort study published in a medical journal overturns this notion. It turns out that continuous sitting for half an hour or more poses a standalone threat, while frequent breaks almost negate the risk, even if the total time of immobility remains high. Scientists have calculated how many minutes of activity are needed to offset the harm from prolonged sitting.
