The Odessa police exposed a masterful fraud scheme, which was implemented for four months by a 25-year-old resident of the Rivne region. The malefactor, using fake payment receipts, successfully carried out an order in an online store of Odessa residents and received goods for free.
Her plan was expertly drawn up: under the guise of a real buyer, she ordered shoes, insisted on full prepayment and sent fake payment receipts. This scheme operated 23 times, brought the malefactor more than 700 thousand hryvnias of profit.
