A 23-year-old city dweller has filed a complaint about fraud at the duty station of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs Directorate for the city of Smolensk. The young man said that an unknown person called him under the guise of a bank employee. The interlocutor said that scammers are trying to withdraw money from the Smolyan card. To save his savings, the young man, misled, took out a loan for 200,000 rubles, and then went to the ATM to withdraw money. But, fortunately, he was embarrassed by another call with instructions to transfer funds to a current account through an ATM of another bank. Smolyanin interrupted the operation, called the bank’s hotline, where he made sure that no one had tried to write off money from his card. A fraud check is currently underway.
