“Hello! Loan, please, money” — this is the message you can get from a friend in the messenger
Do not rush to transfer money - fraudsters could hack his account.
Make sure it's him. Ask a few questions for clarification or call.
This is one of the most common schemes used by scammers. So, recently in Khmelnytskyi Oblast a man turned to the police. In one of the messengers, a friend wrote to him and asked for a loan. The victim transferred the money to the specified bank account, after which she asked for more. She explained that this was not enough, begged for help and promised to return everything. In total, the husband transferred 29 000 hryvnia to her. And only then I found out that the account of a friend was hacked.
Be careful and do not let yourself be deceived.
