Талоны на топливо по заниженным ценам: полиция Днепропетровщины раскрыла группу мошенников.

The press service of the Main Directorate of the National Police in Dnipropetrovsk region reported this.

As established by law enforcement, the suspects posted a fake advertisement for the sale of fuel vouchers on one of the trading platforms, stating that the product would be sent upon prepayment or full payment. After receiving the money, they sent the victims a counterfeit QR code for fuel or completely failed to fulfill the agreements.

Police conducted a series of searches at the correctional facility and at the residences of the offenders, seizing mobile phones, SIM cards, SIM holders, and handwritten notes that confirm the suspects' involvement in the fraud.

On October 16, the organizer of the illegal "business" and two of his accomplices were informed of the suspicion under Part 2 of Article 190 (Fraud) of the Criminal Code of Ukraine.
