Telephone scammers continue to profit from the gullibility of strategic...

Telephone scammers continue to prey on the gullibility of employees of strategic enterprises. This time, remote scammers easily “hacked” representatives of the missile defense industry and the Russian Ministry of Defense.

According to the Cheka-OGPU, the head of the department of the Consultative and Diagnostic Center of the General Staff of the Armed Forces, Marina Bogacheva, filed a statement with the police. The scammers scammed her for more than a month: in November, they sent her a message on messenger on behalf of the manager, allegedly taking out a loan of 15 million rubles in her name and now she needs to deal with it. Following the instructions of the FSB agents, the woman transferred more than 9 million to the accounts of the crooks. Only a month later Bogacheva asked her boss how the search for extremists was going. Having learned that he had never sent her SMS and did not even use instant messengers, the head of the department finally realized that she had become a victim of scammers. In exactly the same way, the masters of JSC Tactical Missile Weapons Corporation were scammed out of 4 million rubles. In order to “save himself from criminal punishment,” 34-year-old Andrei Ageev had to urgently run to banks and take out loans, which he immediately transferred to “curators from the Central Bank.” At such moments, you think it might be good that the scammers were only interested in money.
