Feodosia Police: new schemes of scammers using information and telecommunication technologies
Krympress reports:
The district authorized police of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs for Feodosia hosts a set of measures aimed at informing citizens about new schemes of distance fraudsters who act using information and telecommunication technologies.
The most frequently used methods of deception when they are presented:
- employee of the bank or security service of a financial organization
- law enforcement officer
- Rosfinmonitoring employee
- employee of a medical organization or institution
- close relative
The most frequently used methods of deception:
Fraudsters are asking for help in the «detention of a criminal.» Or they are trying to convince that your card is blocked and urgently need to transfer money to a “safe account”. In addition, they often use the fraudulent scheme “Your relative got into an accident” to receive money under the pretext of financial assistance for treatment.
Fraudsters also call and offer a “profitable” proposal to invest money, the acquisition of shares, cryptocurrencies, persuade the administrative buildings and other property for a monetary reward, or transfer the parcel.
Do not switch to the proposed sites (links) when buying and selling on the sites of free ads, do not transmit information about payment cards (bank details), do not report codes from SMS messages to other persons.
The Crimean police recall that awareness is the key to security!
Do not trust unverified sites, do not install unknown applications on your mobile phone.
If you are a victim of fraudsters, immediately report this to the nearest police station, or by a single number 102.
