Inside the Kiev fraud factory stealing senior citizens’ savings
Мошенническая контора "Milton Group", располагающаяся в молле "Мандарин плаза" в центре Киева, обирала до нитки и загоняла в долги "клиентов" по всему миру, включая шведских пенсионеров. Шведская газета "Dagens Nyheter" сообщает, что им удалось внедрить информатора и добывать сведения о том, как действуют мошенники.
Во многих случаях жертвы (шведские пенсионеры) сами выходили на связь с мошенниками, изначально имея лишь желание получать небольшую прибавку к пенсии денег с помощью скромного размера инвестиций.
Mandarin Plaza is one of Ukraine’s most exclusive shopping malls. Rows of luxury cars are parked outside. Diamond vendors, expensive clothes boutiques and luxurious stores occupy the first floor.
On the sixth and seventh floor: an international fraud factory with hundreds of employees.
Officially the company works with data programming and financial services. Hundreds of telemarketers sit side by side, making phone calls to all over the world in their hunt for new victims. They offer lucrative investments in cryptocurrencies and stocks.
Everything is fake.
Their real operation is committing fraud on an industrial level – and their victims are from all around the world.
Dagens Nyheter equipped the source with a hidden camera which has documented the daily activity in the office.
The information and films have then been shared with Nordic media outlets and the journalist organisation Organized Crime and Corruption Reporting Project, OCCRP. In collaboration with newspapers around the world the whistleblower’s information has been verified by unanimous testimonies from victims on several continents.
Dagens Nyheter’s unique investigation is now being published in newspapers in 25 countries.
...
In a manual for the telemarketers at the office in Kiev there are specific instructions on how to convince Swedish and Scandinavian senior citizens to put their money in fake investments.
”These clients most of the time are old people and they really need someone to talk to. It will be very wise for you to pitch very gently and slow with emotions.”
The telemarketers are encouraged to ask questions about the customers’ life experiences and give the impression that they want to learn from their knowledge. When they have established contact with someone they should get to the actual offer.
”You have to let them know that you want to give them an equally brilliant experience in life about making money the easiest way without them making any effort of going to work every morning, since this is the time they need to relax and enjoy their lives with family.”
...
One of the goals for the telemarketers is to make their victims install a program that makes it possible to remotely control their computers. The software – usually AnyDesk or TeamViewer – is normally used by IT-support teams to help their employees with technical queries. This is also the reason that is given in conversations with the victims.
After the victim has been lured into downloading the program that makes it possible remotely control their computer they are asked to log in to their bank and show their accounts. They also send a copy of their ID-card or passport and a new bill as proof of their home address.
Through the remote control software quick loans with high interest rates – up to 39 percent – were taken out in their names.
The telemarketer then helps the client to trade on one of their trading platforms. With manipulated information the victims are shown fake revenues which are meant to entice them into investing more money.
In reality, the investments don’t exist. The money disappears straight after the transfer.
[when the client wants to get back the money:] That’s when the next step kicks in. The saviour.
A lawyer or financial advisor calls the clients to help them reclaim their investments. Miraculously the money is located, often a larger amount than the client initially invested.
There is only one problem.
Before the transfer can be made and the money can bereturned the firm needs a commission, tax has to be paid and a certificate has to be sent. Everything has to be paid in advance – or the client won’t get the money back.
But this is just another part of the fraud.
