A 46-year-old woman from Kursk, Russia, fell victim to a cryptocurrency investment scam, transferring 28 million rubles to fraudsters. According to police reports, the scam lasted about a year, during which the perpetrators contacted the victim via messaging apps, posing as residents of an Arab country. They lured her with promises of high returns from cryptocurrency investments and assistance in relocating abroad, convincing her to download specific applications and make continuous transfers. The victim sold three properties, a car, and gold bars, and even took on debt to finance these investments. Ultimately, when her funds were depleted, the scammers disappeared, leaving her with significant financial losses.
