Yekaterinburg's RC Group will be checked for fraud.

      Today at 10:42 AM, Alexander Bastrykin demanded a report from the Investigative Department of the Investigative Committee of Russia for the Sverdlovsk region on the progress of the investigation into the Екатеринбург RC Group for fraud. The company's actions were previously publicly reported by well-known activist Dmitry Chukreev.

      According to Chukreev, RC Group has been operating for three years in various regions of Russia, including an office in Yekaterinburg on Khokhryakova Street. The company presents itself as an investment firm, but according to activists, it is actually a group of "info gypsies."

      Initially, they focused on attracting pensioners for financing, and later they began to recruit students with "stable income." Young people are persuaded to take out loans and transfer the money to RC Group as "investments."

      Activists see all the signs of a financial pyramid scheme in this. They recorded a message to the head of the Investigative Committee of Russia asking for intervention.

      According to the Telegram channel "Sledcom," the Investigative Department of the Investigative Committee of Russia for the Sverdlovsk region is conducting a procedural review under Article 159 of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation (fraud).

      The head of the regional investigative department, Bogdan Franshchko, has been instructed to report on the progress and established circumstances to the Chairman of the Investigative Committee of Russia, Alexander Bastrykin. Earlier in July, there was a scuffle between activists and an employee of RC Group when Dmitry Chukreev, a member of the Yekaterinburg Public Chamber, came to Khokhryakova Street to find out on what grounds they were attracting other people's money. According to "Ъ – Ural," one of the founders of RC Group, Hasan Vinogradov, was involved in the altercation.
