Although the victim works in the banking sector and is well aware of common fraud schemes, the perpetrator managed to mislead her. He provided Belarusian bank card details, which created an impression of reliability and legality of the transaction.

The woman transferred 280 rubles to the seller as payment, after which he stopped responding.

A criminal case has been initiated regarding the incident.

The police remind: it is not advisable to transfer prepayments for goods on social networks, even if the seller provides "reliable" bank details.
