According to information from the Investigative Committee, from February 17 to 23, unknown individuals, posing as KGB and National Bank employees, contacted a 65-year-old pensioner from Horki via messengers. They claimed that she needed to declare her cash, threatening a possible search and confiscation of funds.

The scammers convinced the pensioner to hand over the money to a courier, allegedly for official declaration, assuring her that this would help avoid problems.
The woman followed their instructions: she packed 52,500 rubles, belonging to her son, into a box and gave it to the courier.
Two days later, not having received the supposedly declared funds back and after analyzing the correspondence, she realized she had been deceived and contacted the police. Soon, a resident of the Mogilev district, who acted as the courier, was identified and detained. He had handed over the received money to accomplices who are abroad.
A criminal case has been initiated regarding the incident.
