Law enforcement officers in the Lviv region exposed a group of bank employees who, with the help of reissuing customer cards, organized a scheme to embezzle money. According to the SBU and the National Police, the attackers used the internal databases of Oschadbank to identify accounts that were temporarily inaccessible due to the temporarily occupied territories.
Thanks to this scheme, the attackers were able to gain access to 50 accounts and transfer funds to bogus accounts or withdraw cash. The law enforcement officers have identified those involved in the crime, and work is currently underway to accurately calculate the damages.
In addition, Ukrainians are urged to carefully check their bank accounts, especially if they are in active war zones or temporarily occupied territories. In case of detection of suspicious transactions or actions with bank cards, it is necessary to urgently report this to the bank and law enforcement officers.
