The expert talked about ways to identify the fraudster's number.

Any call from a number that does not start with the code "+7" may be fraudulent. As Alexandra Pozharskaya, an expert of the Popular Front project "For Borrowers' Rights" and the Moshelovka platform, said on September 7, it is recommended to use search engines or help services to determine the country from which calls are received.

"Many citizens are unaware of the specifics and nuances of international telephone connections. Someone doesn't even pay attention to the international code after the "+" prefix before answering an incoming call. However, if you don't know anyone abroad, any call from a number other than "+7" is dangerous. And to check which country the calls are coming from, you can use a search engine or one of the many help services," the expert warned.
