The problem of an elderly resident of Kazan was solved on the day of the request.
Pensioner Elena Markelova called the “Itogi Goda” program with Vladimir Putin and told about her misfortune.
The woman complained that she had become a victim of telephone scammers, Izvestia writes.
A Russian woman took out a loan for more than 700 thousand rubles and transferred this money to scammers.
They deceived a woman using a scheme that has already become standard.
The perpetrators introduced themselves as both State Services employees and investigators.
Finding herself in debt to the bank, the pensioner got a job as a cleaner.
On December 19, the "Itogi Goda" (Results of the Year) with Putin took place. Markelova got through to the president and described her problem.
On the same day, the prosecutor contacted the woman.
The pensioner's debt was written off, and the bank became the victim in this case.
The prosecutor assured that a resident of Kazan will no longer have to pay on a loan taken out at the behest of fraudsters.
The woman was surprised at how quickly the problem was resolved.
She noted that she received a call from the prosecutor's office even before the "Year in Review" program ended.
