A messenger who worked for fraudsters was arrested in Krasnodar. He took almost three million rubles from a pensioner. A 21-year-old resident of Murmansk found a part-time job as a courier and, according to investigators, took money from defrauded citizens in various regions of Russia. So, the young man flew to Krasnodar to meet with a 64-year-old resident of the village of Kazanskaya. The fraudsters convinced the pensioner to "declare" his savings. And on Dezhnev Street he gave the messenger 2.7 million rubles, and gave the agreed code word. So the resident of Murmansk went to Moscow and transferred the money to the specified account, leaving 115 thousand rubles for himself. After that, the cheater's assistant returned home. The police arrested the suspect at the Krasnodar airport, where he allegedly flew for another fraud. The criminal case was transferred to the court. The man was taken into custody.
