Bekeshev proposes to introduce restrictions on transfers over 1 million soms » Gazeta.kg

During the meeting, Bekeshev emphasized that the introduction of such restrictions would help quickly determine whether large transfers are the result of fraud. According to Deputy Minister of Internal Affairs Nurbek Abdiyev, in 2025, there were 3,267 cases of fraud registered, of which 1,547 criminal cases were initiated. As a result of the investigations, 834 cases were solved, while 713 remain unsolved because the criminals are outside the country.

The Deputy Minister added that during the specified period, 226 dropper cases were identified, and those responsible were held accountable.
Abdiyev noted that most fraudulent activities occur through messengers, where criminals pose as employees of government agencies and promise citizens to increase their income.

Bekeshev expressed regret that many citizens continue to fall for the tricks of fraudsters.
He cited a case where a woman, receiving a call from alleged employees of the GKNB, was deceived and transferred 10.6 million soms, believing it was necessary to reclaim her apartment. "Is it really impossible to set limits on one-time transfers through terminals? I understand that transfers of 10,000 soms do not raise suspicions, but amounts over a million should be under control. This cooling-off period will help prevent suspicious transactions," the deputy addressed the representatives of the National Bank.

Additionally, Bekeshev suggested that the Ministry of Internal Affairs create a list where citizens could publish the numbers of fraudsters.
