Fraudsters do not leave Russians the slightest chance to return stolen funds.
Attackers have started forcing their victims to reset their smartphones to factory settings. They do this for one purpose only.
Alena Boldyreva, Deputy Head of the Monitoring and Analysis Department of the Center for Legal Assistance to Citizens in the Digital Environment, spoke about this in more detail.
Fraudsters do everything to make it difficult for lawyers and law enforcement officers to find any traces of their activities, TASS reports.
To do this, they convince victims to delete all dialogues with them or even go to the settings and reset the smartphone to factory settings.
In such cases, it is difficult for lawyers to prove that the victims were not involved in any transactions that took place remotely.
This can create problems when trying to recover stolen funds.
Previously, hackers stole secret data on the development of OpenAl technologies.
