Fraudsters stealing money from plastic cards arrested
Criminal cases have been initiated against young people who have performed criminal “abilities” in the field of IT.
According to the MIA Cybersecurity Center, Sh.S., a resident of the Karshi district of Kashkadarya region, stated that unknown persons fraudulently stole funds in the amount of 6,326,000 soums from his plastic card account.
As a result of the operative search activities, the involvement in this crime of 18-year-old resident of the Karshi district Kh.M. was established. Allegedly, he added someone else’s bank card to the CLICK application installed on his mobile phone and misappropriated the money.
A criminal case has been initiated against him under Article 169 (Theft) of the Criminal Code. An investigation is underway.
T.D., a resident of the Kashkadarya region, appealed to the internal affairs bodies, who in his letter said that he had corresponded with the administrator of the Telegram channel “Ayollar kiyimlari turkiya”, who introduced herself as Farangiz. In order to purchase the goods, he turned to Farangiz and she asked him to provide her with a bank card number and the number that would be received via SMS. The buyer did everything and soon realized that he had lost the entire amount that was on the card - 9 million soums.
As a result of operative-search measures, involvement in the theft of a resident of the city of Karshi, citizen J.J. (born in 2004), was established.
A criminal case has been initiated on the fact under Article 169-3 of the Criminal Code. Investigative actions are underway.
Now young people who decide to use their knowledge in the field of IT to commit illegal acts face imprisonment for a term of 5 to 8 years.
