CrimeaPRESS reports:
A 34-year-old resident of Simferopol will stand trial for fraud (parts 2, 3 of Article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation) for a total amount of more than 770 thousand rubles. All episodes are somehow connected to the Internet.
According to investigators, in November 2022, the woman created an account on one of the social networks, where she offered services for the purchase of various goods from famous brands. The attacker reported the need to transfer a specific amount to her bank account to purchase the necessary goods, while the woman had no real intention to fulfill her obligations. In this way, the accused obtained money from 5 victims, the prosecutor’s office said.
In addition, in December 2022, the accused asked her friend to transfer funds in the amount of 10 thousand rubles to pay for a trip to a children’s sanatorium for her daughter, without intending to return the specified amount.
In January 2023, the attacker misled her friend about the possibility of unblocking a page on a social network for a monetary reward. Having no real opportunity or intention to provide such a service, the accused took possession of her friend’s funds.
As a result of the actions of the convicted person, 7 victims suffered material damage totaling more than 770 thousand rubles,” the prosecutor’s office revealed details.
Partial damage caused was compensated at the investigation stage; a number of victims filed claims. With the approved indictment, the criminal case was sent to the Central District Court of Simferopol for consideration on the merits. The inventive fraudster faces imprisonment for up to 5 years.
