A lab assistant from Sverdlovsk committed suicide after being scammed by fraudsters.
In Asbest, a 37-year-old lab technician named Marina took her own life. According to KP‑Ekaterinburg, she did so after becoming a victim of telephone scammers. Her body was found near the Bodrost recreation center.
According to preliminary information, the fraudsters forced the Sverdlovsk resident to take out several loans. The scam began with an SMS password that allowed them to gain access to Gosuslugi.
Law enforcement agencies are investigating the incident. The Investigative Committee declined to comment on the situation.
“They deceived her. It’s a shock and a tragedy. They won’t tell us anything. It’s hard to estimate how much she gave away,” the victim’s stepfather told KP‑Ekaterinburg.
The woman worked in the laboratory of Zarechny’s medical unit and previously worked at Asbest City Clinical Hospital No. 1. Marina is survived by a 14‑year‑old son; after her death the boy was taken in by his father.
