Attention Graduates: Scammers Attack with Offers to Buy ЕГЭ Answers

Roskachestvo Warns of Increasing Fraudulent Schemes Related to Account Theft on "Gosuslugi"

The Digital Expertise Center of Roskachestvo reports a significant increase in cases of fraud targeting schoolchildren preparing for the ЕГЭ. Attackers use social networks to create groups where they offer to buy exam answers.

Attackers post links to Telegram channels where they promise to provide ЕГЭ answers for a small fee, usually not exceeding 2000 rubles. After receiving the money, the fraudsters report that the answers will be available through the "Gosuslugi" portal. To do this, they ask schoolchildren to enter their data and the verification code from the SMS in a fake authorization form.

As every year, we urge graduates and their parents to be extremely vigilant and not to trust such offers. There are no  "secret" ЕГЭ answers that can be bought. Any offers to buy are fraud.
Sergey Kuzmenko, Head of the Digital Expertise Center of Roskachestvo

Experts note that such schemes are becoming increasingly sophisticated. Fraudsters use psychological techniques to convince schoolchildren of the legitimacy of their offers. It is important to remember that the only way to successfully pass exams is through preparation and diligence.
