Teenagers were offered to set a limit on bank card transactions

Public activists propose to legally limit transactions for the transfer and receipt of cash for minors in the amount of 100 thousand rubles, the People's Front told Izvestia. The limit can only be increased by the teenager's legal representative.

Once there was such a bar: banks want to introduce a limit on transfers from teen cards

What will be the maximum amount and how will it help in the fight against fraudsters?

In the summer of this year, about 20% of the received phone fraud signals contained information about attacks on children from 12 to 19 years old, it was found out during the monitoring of the Popular Front. The attackers present themselves as classroom teachers, head teachers, nurses, heads of educational institutions, and psychologists. They often ask teenagers to conduct a remote search of the apartment or send SMS messages from their parents' phones, experts have recorded.

"In parallel with setting limits, it is necessary to intensify educational work with children and adolescents, involving the participation of Interior Ministry staff and professional experts, which will help make such information more memorable for schoolchildren," the movement suggests.

Bank managers continue to ignore the obvious signs of teenagers being involved in dropping, opening accounts for them without proper verification, and have confirmed the control purchases of the Moshelovka.RF project to find and combat financial fraudsters.

We need a list of signs indicating the participation of minors in dropping schemes, as well as recommendations for actions when they are identified, the Popular Front said.
