REN TV will show a new investigation "Trust but verify: new divorce schemes"

On November 8, REN TV will broadcast a new documentary investigation, "Trust but Verify: New Divorce Schemes."

Scammers have become more cunning, and their schemes have become more sophisticated. What is a bench cafe and why did thousands of men end up in debt after going on dates there?

How did a psychic rob gullible fans of his talent for more than two years? How did the scammers convince a retired family to record a video of a fake kidnapping and ask their children to raise 5 million for a ransom? Why do the wives of those who died in the SVO become easy prey for scammers? Who is profiting from the participants of the special operation?

Alina Yunusova, the wife of a SVO fighter, told REN TV her story: at the military enlistment office, she found out that another woman was claiming payments for her missing husband. And the female lawyer who undertook to help her disappeared with an advance payment and a power of attorney for document transactions.

Real estate fraud is also reaching a new level. A conman lawyer left a 60-year-old resident of Kursk without an apartment, pocketing 4 million rubles. People's Artist Larisa Dolina also got into the fraudulent scheme, but if the court returned the elite square meters in the center of Moscow to her, then the conscientious buyer of this apartment was left without housing and without money. What is the "Valley effect"? Why is the Russian real estate market in a fever now, and people are afraid to buy apartments on the secondary market? How can I protect myself?

Even singer Oleg Gazmanov got hooked by scammers and gave them all his retirement savings. In an exclusive interview with REN TV, the People's Artist of Russia revealed all the details of what happened. Why do we trust strangers with the most valuable things? How to recognize a fraudster, avoid falling into a trap and save your money?

The premiere of the investigation will take place this Saturday, November 8, at 4:55 p.m.
