The Ministry of the Interior reported fraud with fake fines for traffic violations.
Criminals send receipts to pay off collections. Such documents can be distinguished by several characteristics, the department noted.
One of the characteristics of such documents is that you receive a decision and receipt of a fine by email or messenger. In this case, the real receipt goes to your personal account on the state services portal or is displayed on the website of the traffic police, TASS reports.
