Man, 59, Scammed Out of 123,000 Rubles Seeking Intimate Services Online

A 59-year-old driver, seeking intimate services online, has fallen victim to a sophisticated scam. The victim, who has chosen to remain unnamed, has transferred a total of 123,000 rubles to the scammers. The scam began with the victim being asked to pay a deposit of 5,000 rubles and an insurance fee of 15,000 rubles, totaling 20,000 rubles. Later, the scammers requested an additional 15,000 rubles from the victim. Despite these payments, the scammers continued to demand more money, eventually asking the victim to transfer 44,000 rubles twice, amounting to 88,000 rubles. The victim complied, leading to a total loss of 123,000 rubles. The victim's case has not been publicly documented, and the exact location, Aldan District, has not been linked to any known scam cases. Authorities urge caution when seeking intimate services online and remind users to be wary of any requests for money, especially in large amounts.
