The woman transferred the money through a bank branch to the specified bank account number. And then it turned out that the 29-year-old son of the deceived woman was not detained, but was working in Moscow ...
Having realized that she had been tricked, the victim filed a statement with the police. The scammer is wanted, though it would be difficult to find him, scince the police have neither phone number nor bank account number, which the woman hastily forgot to record ...
The police warn the citizens: do not believe anyone and do not transfer money whatever you could be told. It is better to immediately contact the person in question and ask where he or she is and whether he or she is all right. And all such cases should be immediately reported to the police.
