It's not the secret that progress means for swindlers as much as for legislative people. They only use it extremely illegally and with the purpose of fast enrichment. Her are some characteristic stories, which have taken place in sphere of high technologies in Belarus lately.

Fooled Byelorussians

600 thousand USD as it seemed to him, the Belarus executive Dmitry Rybkin invested in the building business of Nigeria. He received e-mail in which a certain Alex Deck presented himself as the bookkeeper of the Nigerian building company, very convincingly suggested to receive 10 million dollars of the profit.

This huge sum killed any awareness in Dmitry at once. In fact, to invest in business on construction of shopping center it was necessary a real drop - 14 thousand dollars. Belarusian agreed come into the business, but suggested cautiously, that his Nigerian partner Mr. Deck would frankly paid half from this sum. The Nigerian agreed.

The next payment from the trustful Byelorussian sent under the pretext of payment for lawyer services. One more payment for some reason has not seemed to the trustful Byelorussian ironic - the Nigerian partner asked to deposit money to receive the inquiry confirming cleanliness of the transaction.

They have extracted 600 thousand dollars in total from the Byelorussian. He visited even London in order, as it seemed to him, to sign a paper about an investment of the next large portion of money in solid lawyer office and to receive the certificate that he shortly becomes the owner of ten millions dollars.

Even when suspicions appeared at the deceived Byelorussian, and he went to police, he hoped nevertheless to get promised money.

In the other case, as the fly was a message how to get a prize in a lottery. The Belarus women in Minsk, Brest and Grodno swallowed it. It was possible to receive a prize in 50 thousand dollars only after payment of services of the lawyer and cost of translation 5 thousand dollars sum total. It is not necessary to mention, that there were not any lotteries, so money have gone to a pocket of swindlers!

The essence of all frauds a similar sorts - they propose to people big money, loans, payments or a prize which is very difficult to refuse.

Therefore, it's more difficult then to find swindlers who use anonymous bank accounts and Internet addresses. Moreover, it is practically impossible to return money at all, because swindlers are hiding behind various legal subtleties.

According to the employee of a department of high technologies of the Belarusian Ministry of Internal Affairs Andrey Miklashevich, before the messages of swindlers could get without effort in your postbox, now they are as easy catching the victims by e-mail. The letter you are not waiting for, more known as a spam, it is not necessary even to open, moreover not to read them or to answer for suspicious offers.

Fooled foreigners

Byelorussians use high technologies for swindle as much as foreigners do. They still could buy trustful foreign citizens on favorable offers of sale of the fictional goods on the largest Internets auctions such as E-buy.

They do efficient correspondence with the potential buyer, receive an advance payment for the goods even unsent by mail, and then simply disappear. The sums they receive are not so large, about thousand dollars (for example, cost of second-hand Notebook), but they are rather regular.

Probably, foreigners do not guess even, that the swindler can easily buy a rating of the carried out successful sales, as well as compliment responses. Moreover, if there are engaged in a deceit some persons it does not effort at all.

One more popular way how the swindlers from Belarus extract money from rich foreigners is scamming. Foreign fianc?s are victims in this case. A fly is brilliant appearance of attractive young women with offers of a hand and heart, which are on every possible Internets sites of dating. Photos are another's as a rule. Some groups of swindlers that are take up scamming, do not include girls at all.

The swindlers have full arrangements of letters and answers to letters practically for all occasions. They ask money from foreigners on the ticket to see the fianc?e or on recovery of own health or health of suddenly and hardly fallen ill relative, for whom expensive medicines are necessary. If "girl" writes, that "there is nothing to eat", it is possible, that she or he goes for a drive in the evenings on expensive car and looks a lullaby before dream on the plasma TV.

According to Andrey Miklashevich, it is very difficult to prove, that similar money extraction is swindle. Scamming girl approve, that she is kind and fluffy and cannot simply find her missing heart.

In the near future the next plans on the fraud of trustful citizens will appear. Swindlers as well as other social groups in a society make the certain percent of users of a network. There are a lot of them or a little is difficult to say, but in sight, the Belarus computer detectives have more than 500 people.
