In Sevastopol, the man “took away” 180 thousand rubles from his acquaintance from his friend

Previously, the detainee was already prosecuted for fraud.

It was established that several years ago, a 49-year-old local resident met a 41-year-old visitor and they had friendly relations. Due to the lack of the necessary documents, the new friend asked him to render him a service — to issue a bank card in her name so that he could receive wages. Without suspecting anything wrong, the lady fulfilled his request. Later, the couple’s relations went up, and the woman took her card. However, she did not know that her friend, using these cards, created on his smartphone a personal banking account, issued a loan of 180 thousand rubles on her name and spent money on his needs. Upon learning of the debt to the bank, the victim turned to the police,-noted in the press service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia in Sevastopol.

As a result of the measures taken, employees of the criminal investigation department of the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs in the Gagarinsky district detained the suspect. A criminal case has been instituted against him under Part 3 of Art. 158 of the Criminal Code «Theft». The sanction of the article provides for punishment in the form of imprisonment for up to six years.
