The lawyer called the action provoking the blocking of bank transfers

A money transfer may be blocked by the bank if the account holder has changed his phone number in the financial institution's application or on the Gosuslugi website two days before the transaction. This was announced on Wednesday, January 29, by Dmitry Pashin, lawyer of the Inter-territorial Bar Association (ICA) Klishin and Partners.

"Banks are suspicious of any operation 48 hours before which a phone number was changed in an online bank or at Gosuslugi," he said in an interview with RIA Novosti.

The expert added that representatives of banks may regard the series of actions described by him as an act of fraud, since intruders, trying to steal notifications with valuable information coming from these institutions, change phone numbers.

Alexander Khaminsky, head of the Law Enforcement Center in Moscow and the Moscow Region, said on the same day that the transfer could also be blocked if the sender of the money indicated in the comments to the operation that the recipient was involved in illegal commercial activities. The specialist stated that about 22% of the total number of online transactions are being further studied, since all domestic banks are subject to the law on countering money laundering.
