Cyber police officers in the city of Kiev, together with the Main Investigative Department of the NPU, stopped the fraudulent activity of the company, which, under the pretext of investing in shares of world financial companies, appropriated the money of citizens of Ukraine and foreigners. It is reported by the National Police.
Cyber police found that the company began operations in October 2019 and positioned itself as a premium class financial services provider. For their fraud, the fraudsters created a web platform and placed their own call center in Kiev, with a staffing of about 20 people. Call center employees assured citizens of the profitability of such an investment and encouraged them to deposit funds.
On the company's website, new customers were promised a welcome bonus when replenishing their account. Depositors registered on the web platform, created accounts and replenished their deposits. Then they took part in fictitious tenders on world financial markets. In fact, no operations were carried out on the platform on the interbank market, and scammers appropriated the money.
Law enforcement officers searched the location of the office. According to the results, computer equipment, mobile phones, information storage devices were seized. The seized is sent for examination.
On this fact, criminal proceedings under part 4 of Art. 190 (fraud) of the Criminal Code of Ukraine. Pre-trial investigation is ongoing.
