A group of fraudsters who sold cars for the Armed Forces of Ukraine while in jail will be tried in Sumy region. Investigators found that the fraudsters had defrauded 22 people, including members of the Armed Forces, of more than UAH 265,000. According to investigators, the scheme looked like this:

The criminals posted ads for the sale of uncleared cars on popular online platforms. The buyers were persuaded to make a prepayment of UAH 2,000 to 10,000 to the controlled accounts. After receiving the money, the offenders would stop contacting them.

It was established that the fraudulent scheme was organized by four people who had previously been sentenced to imprisonment for committing serious crimes. These individuals are currently serving their sentences in one of the regional center's prisons.

The offenders created an organized group and distributed responsibilities among themselves. Later, they involved five other free associates in the illegal activity," the police said.

Fraudsters are creating fake bots in messengers from the alleged Kyivstar telecom operator and distributing phishing links under the pretext of compensation. 

In Lviv region, a group of people were detained who misled those wishing to illegally cross the border, including promising two people assistance in crossing the border for $15,000, allegedly through the "Shlyakh" system.
