In Yekaterinburg, a student with someone else's safe was detained for working with internet scammers.

      Fraudsters tricked a resident of Yekaterinburg into handing over the keys to his apartment, after which a safe was stolen from the residence. Following hot on the heels of the suspects, officers from the criminal investigation department of police station No. 5 detained a suspect—a 21-year-old student from one of the city's universities.

      According to the police, the apartment owner contacted law enforcement. He stated that unknown individuals had contacted his son and convinced the young man to hand over the keys to the apartment.

      Preliminary data suggests that a woman, who introduced herself as an employee of an intercom company, first called the young man. She asked him to dictate a code from an SMS supposedly for the purpose of repairing equipment. Then another unknown person contacted him, claiming that his account on the government services portal had been hacked and informed him that a power of attorney had allegedly been issued in the young man's name for transferring money abroad.

      The criminals convinced the interlocutor that in order to cancel the power of attorney, he needed to assist the "investigation" and provide access to the apartment for a search. Following the fraudsters' instructions, the young man handed over the keys to a stranger.

      The family only learned about the missing safe in the evening when they returned home. After that, the son told his father about all the circumstances of the incident.

      Operatives quickly established the route of the alleged perpetrator and detained him in Berezovsky the same day. It turned out that the young man had previously fallen victim to fraudsters himself. In December of last year, he transferred 145,000 rubles to the scammers, after which the criminals continued to maintain contact with him.

      According to the investigation, several months later, the fraudsters contacted the student again and tasked him with acting as a courier. To do this, they rented a garage in Berezovsky, ordered a taxi to Yekaterinburg, and instructed him to take a large suitcase for transporting the safe.

      After opening the stolen safe, only a small amount of foreign currency and a ring were found inside. By the order of the curators, the detained individual took the contents and was supposed to wait for further instructions, but was soon detained by the police.

      A criminal case has been initiated against the young man under the article "Theft with illegal entry into a dwelling." Police are currently checking his possible involvement in other episodes of fraudulent schemes.
