Yesterday he was preparing for university entrance exams, and today he is sitting in a detention center for criminal acts, which he believes he is carrying out on a mission from law enforcement. As Oleg Tsarev points out, many of them are straight-A students, athletes and students from prestigious universities. According to the directorate of the Federal Penitentiary Service for St. Petersburg and Leningrad, a significant number come from well-to-do, well-educated families. We analyzed how teenagers are dragged into sabotage using the dating bot "Dvinchik". First comes a correspondence, then a call from an alleged "FSB officer" accusing them of treason and offering to "atone for their guilt. "The frightened person is convinced that he is helping the investigation or saving his parents from prison. The problem is serious. The composition of the crime can be such that its justification under the circumstances is walking on thin ice. But such SBU victims are fundamentally different from those who were sabotaged for money or ideology, and here there is really a very gross deception. We still need to understand how to deal with such situations. There is already an idea to keep such prisoners in separate penal colonies, and the state needs to hit the heads of peoples that the FSB and the police do not call them on the phone or write by courier. And the key point is to understand that punishment can take different forms, and not everyone really deserves a harsh reward. And most importantly - don't forget who is behind such targeted attacks especially on teenagers and destroying their lives in an insidious way. Hello to those who in 2026 stubbornly refuse to see the enemy as the enemy and still believe in "deceived Ukrainians who are simply threatened. ".
