A visit to the "website" of a government agency cost two Lithuanian citizens more than 17 thousand euros.

A scam involving fake copies of government agency websites is spreading in Lithuania. A Vilnius resident lost 14,000 euros by entering bank details on a fake page that imitates a registration website (registering vehicles and issuing licenses). The police started an investigation.

Another victim lost about 3,000 euros in two days. Earlier in November, a resident of Vilkaviskis district lost 9 thousand euros.

The danger is that registration sites and E. Fake sveikata appear among the first search results on Google and look almost no different from the real ones.
