Moreover, the scam was uncovered only after the man himself contacted the National Bank requesting the return of his money.

According to the Investigative Committee, the perpetrators exerted psychological pressure on the Brest resident over the course of a year. They threatened him with criminal charges and searches.

Under their influence, the man transferred funds to designated accounts and also handed cash over to couriers on several occasions.

In total, he lost more than 960 thousand rubles.

Judging by his subsequent appeal, the man had expected all along to recover his money following a so-called "declaration." It was with this request that he approached the National Bank, which is when the scam was finally exposed.
