According to operational data, the criminals used internet platforms and messengers, posing as employees of banks or government institutions, to deceitfully convince citizens to transfer funds to accounts controlled by them. After receiving the money, they quickly cashed out the funds or transferred them to other accounts, trying to cover their tracks.

Since the beginning of the current year, law enforcement agencies have identified and brought to the station more than 180 individuals, of which over 30 have been held criminally liable. During investigative actions, mobile phones, bank cards, SIM cards, and other items relevant to the investigation were seized.

Currently, investigative and operational activities are ongoing to clarify all the circumstances of the case, as well as to identify other possible participants in the criminal activity and determine the total amount of damage caused. The investigation continues.

The Main Department of Internal Affairs of Bishkek reminds you: do not share your bank cards, account details, and confirmation codes with third parties, even if they claim to be employees of government agencies or banks. Granting access to your cards can be used in fraudulent schemes for cashing out and transferring stolen funds.

We also remind you that participation in such actions entails criminal liability in accordance with the legislation of the Kyrgyz Republic.

If you are offered to hand over your card or open an account "for a reward," immediately report this by calling 102.
