The Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs reported a new scheme of scammers who abduct money and access to “public services”, introducing themselves as employees of the military enlistment office. The victims are more often men who are called or written in messengers by unknown people, writes TASS.
Fraudsters say that you need to bring documents to the military registration and enlistment office and register on the website of the Ministry of Defense. At the same time, the victim comes to the code that she transfers to the swindler. So scammers get access to the account on the Public Service portal.
After that, the victim is called allegedly by employees of Roskomnadzor or FSB and report that the account is hacked. They advise transferring money to a “safe account” to preserve funds. A gullible person performs instructions, transfers money through a mobile application – and loses it.
The Ministry of Internal Affairs is called to be attentive when communicating with strangers in messengers. Do not follow any instructions of the so -called officials and transfer codes or access to accounts.
