Fraudsters have come up with a new way to steal personal data and money from Russians. Under the guise of issuing a virtual credit card, scammers offer to fill out a form via a fake link.
Responding to the offer to apply for a virtual credit card, victims registered on the scammers' website, filled out a form, and provided personal data. After completing the form, the victim had to pay a "commission." Thus, scammers receive not only personal data but also money.
Scammers attract people with promises to approve credit, including for pensioners and those with a bad credit history. At the same time, they do not mention the high annual interest rates that will have to be paid.
Russians should remember that you should not enter personal data on suspicious sites, you should never transfer prepayment for tempting promises of "favorable conditions", you need to carefully check Internet resources and be careful.
