It is noted that a 22-year-old resident of Shepetivka district sent out messages offering additional income. It consisted in the fact that the victims had to enter into loan agreements with microfinance organizations and then transfer funds to the organizer of the scheme. The victims kept a certain percentage as a reward. The man, in turn, was obliged to repay the arising debts and the amount of interest accrued for the use of credit funds on his own.
