Spetsnaz stormed the office of a gang of pseudo-electricians in Yekaterinburg. This became known on Wednesday, December 15.
The intruders were taken out of the building and put into a paddy wagon. Both “field workers” and dispatchers and their leaders were detained. The fraudsters were taken to Perm, where the investigation and trial will take place, URA.RU reported.
Every month the criminals deceived senior citizens worth millions of rubles: they came to pensioners under the guise of electricians and offered services at inflated prices. So, the works, which in reality cost 3 thousand rubles, they performed for 30-40 thousand rubles.
On December 13, ESET experts reported that on New Year’s Eve, Russians are faced with an increase in fraud and new cybercrime schemes. One of the most common scam tricks is related to travel services. So, they pretend to be employees of travel companies and ask the victims to make an advance payment.
