Fraudsters have introduced a new scheme with fake receipts for traffic offences.
As the Ministry of the Interior said, cases of this type of mailing have already been recorded - the fraudsters count on car owners to pay a "fine" using incorrect details.
The chart looks like this:
The vehicle owner receives a letter in the mail with a decision regarding an administrative offense case - describing the traffic offense and imposing a fine.
On the back of the sheet there is a picture of the vehicle and a receipt form with bank details.
However, in the "Recipient" column, instead of the Federal Ministry of Finance (UFK), the account number of one of the electronic payment systems is indicated.
The Ministry of the Interior emphasized: Fines issued by traffic police officers are paid exclusively according to the details of the Federal Tax Service and cannot be transferred through electronic payment systems. The department clarified that these are violations that were discovered through special technical means that operate automatically.
