Officers of the Department for Combating Illegal Use of Information and Communication Technologies of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia, together with colleagues from Rostov-on-Don, stopped the activities of a group that specialized in stealing money from citizens' bank accounts.

"The operatives established that the attackers created phishing links on popular resources of logistics companies and marketplaces. They posted ads for the sale of goods on various Internet sites. Buyers followed these links, and when paying, they entered bank card details, thereby opening access to their accounts.

In Veliky Novgorod and in the city of Yenakiyevo (Donetsk People's Republic), operatives detained two participants in the criminal scheme. One of them is a programmer who directly created the links and administered the chat. The other, using mobile phones and SIM cards, registered accounts and made calls to citizens. During the search, more than three thousand SIM cards were confiscated from him,” said the official representative of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia Irina Volk.

The investigator of the Main Investigative Directorate of the Main Directorate of the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Russia for the Rostov Region opened a criminal case on the grounds of a crime under paragraph “g” of part three of Article 158 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation. A preventive measure in the form of detention was chosen for one of the detainees. His accomplice is under a written undertaking not to leave the area and to behave properly.

“Currently, operational search activities and investigative actions are being carried out aimed at establishing all the circumstances of the incident and possible accomplices,” added Irina Volk.
