A fraudster who defrauded the families of SVO participants out of 630 thousand rubles was detained in Sevastopol

In Sevastopol, the police detained a previously convicted 45-year-old resident of the near abroad, who profited from the families of military personnel - participants in a special military operation (SVO). The press service of the Ministry of Internal Affairs reported this in its Telegram channel.

According to the investigation, the detainee was well acquainted with four local residents and their husbands who served in the Northern Military District zone. Using trust, he talked about his extensive connections in law enforcement agencies, promising help to families and military personnel for a reward. In fact, the swindler did not have any connections, and he spent everything he managed to lure out on himself.

In addition, the cunning man lured money for the supposedly necessary purchase of building materials for the needs of the Northern Military District and the purchase of a car for profitable resale, but he kept the car for himself and did not return the debts.

The victims waited for years for what was promised, and then turned to the police. The total damage amounted to about 630 thousand rubles. The defendant is under house arrest.
