Rosfinmonitoring explained new scheme of fraud

Fraudsters use new schemes for theft of money, this was reported by RIA Novosti Olga Tisen, head of the legal department of Rosfinmonitoring.

According to Tisen, scammers on behalf of Rosfinmonitoring send reports on the imaginary collection of funds in connection with suspicious activity. In addition, in some cases, these messages use an imitation of symbols and seals of Rosfinmonitoring.

“There are also cases of multi -phase fraud with the subsequent requirement of additional funds allegedly to pay the Rosfinmonitoring Commission,” she said.

After sending letters, scammers offer the victim to pay for the “commission” in order to maintain at least part of the available funds. As a result, fraudsters open access not only to accounts, but also to personal data of citizens, added Olga Tisen.

Multi -phase theft of funds can also be realized under the guise of using measures to launder revenue or financing of terrorism. Tysen explained that at first, attackers are trying to lure people into financial pyramids, taking away the last money from them, and when the victims are requested to return the abducted, scammers inform them of “blocking the accounts of Rosfinmonitoring” and demanding money for the defrosting of operations.
