The Ivatsevichi district department of the Investigative Committee is investigating a criminal case of fraud on an especially large scale. This was reported to the Investigative Committee.
According to the investigation, in June the cybercriminal contacted a 29-year-old resident of Minsk. He used fake documents and requisites and convinced a Minsker to register an organization on the commodity exchange that specializes in the sale of agricultural products. After that, the fraudster offered the goods at a low cost to three organizations in the agricultural industry.
The cybercriminal successfully concluded contracts with them for the supply of goods worth more than Br370 thousand. When the payment was received, the attacker transferred the money to controlled foreign bank accounts and disappeared. The victims tried to contact the organization to clarify the details of the delivery of products, but found that it had not been operating for more than a year. The victims contacted the police.
A resident of Minsk, who became a participant in the crime, was detained. Investigative actions are being carried out with him to find out the role and level of involvement in the criminal scheme. In addition, investigators are conducting activities that are aimed at identifying the main suspect.
