Sergey Veligodsky, Director of the Anti-Fraud Department of PJSC Sberbank, spoke about the return of funds to defrauded bank clients at the press conference "Telephone fraud: schemes, scale and countermeasures".
"Bringing mules to albania whatsapp number databa se justice and collecting from them the amounts that went through the accounts is a very important initiative. Our experience of interaction with the Russian Ministry of Internal Affairs in this way has already allowed us to return about 350-400 million rubles to clients. By the end of 2024, together with the Ministry of Internal Affairs, we plan to return about 1 billion rubles to clients. This process needs to be supported and developed. It is also possible to stop the issuance of loans. We have several "cold modes" - for four hours, 24 hours and a complete refusal - for events when a person takes out a loan under outside influence. This measure allows us to minimize the number of fraudulent transfers," emphasized Sergey Veligodsky.
of the Digital Economy under the Federation Council Artem Sheikin reported on the increasing number of lawsuits from citizens for the return of funds: "Despite the fact that Sberbank has a high-level system for preventing the issuance of such loans, even fraudsters sometimes manage to bypass it somehow. There is no judicial practice on this issue yet, but there are already lawsuits from victims. We are talking about the recovery of amounts of unjust enrichment that were stolen from bank cards. In the first seven months of 2024 alone, citizens filed 117 claims for almost 52 million rubles. Of these, 14 claims for a total of 6.7 million rubles were reviewed and satisfied. The first attempts to file lawsuits against mobile operators are already underway."
Director of Fraud Level Management at PJSC VimpelCom Petr Alferov noted the work of operators to eliminate problems: "We are constantly working with the prosecutor's office. The entire operator community receives a lot of fines for traffic skipping and similar violations. Thus, fines stimulate the industry to move towards correcting the situation. And we are currently focused on building this process. At the next stage, we will catch up with the banks and look at lawsuits of a different level."
