The Interior Ministry warned about a scheme to deceive Russians under the pretext of working as extras

Intruders, in order to steal money from citizens of the Russian Federation, place ads on the Internet about recruiting actors to participate in extras. On April 3, the Interior Ministry of Russia informed about this.

"With those who agreed, the fraudsters signed a contract and an additional agreement, which in fact were documents for a loan in the amount of 50 to 150 thousand rubles," the agency quoted RIA Novosti as saying.

During the interview, the attackers praised their potential victims for their appearance and convinced them to become models. The money received from the Russians was immediately transferred to the company's account.
