A resident of Bishkek transferred nearly $50,000 to scammers via WhatsApp
According to information from law enforcement agencies, the funds were transferred to seven different bank accounts. In this regard, the investigative department initiated a criminal case under Article 209, Part 1 of the Criminal Code of the Kyrgyz Republic, which pertains to the intentional transfer or sale of electronic payment means, virtual assets, and SIM cards to third parties.
The investigation revealed that the victim made transfers through payment terminals of "Optima Bank," with a total amount of 3,655,000 soms.
During the investigation, one of the recipients of the funds was identified — A. B., born in 2007. An amount of 200,000 soms was credited to his bank card. He was detained and brought to the investigative department of the Internal Affairs Department of the First May District of Bishkek, where he was placed in a temporary detention facility of the City Department of Internal Affairs in accordance with Article 96 of the Criminal Procedure Code of the Kyrgyz Republic.
Currently, investigative actions, operational-search activities, and technical checks are ongoing to identify the owners of the remaining accounts, track the movement of funds, and clarify the involvement of other participants in the crime.
