Ukraine and Moldova have uncovered an international fraud scheme: how money was swindled for cars from the USA.

Law enforcement agencies of Ukraine and Moldova have jointly uncovered an international fraud scheme under which citizens of Ukraine were swindled out of money supposedly for the delivery of cars from the USA. The organizers of the scheme created fake pages on social networks where they advertised 'turnkey' car delivery services. Clients were asked to make a prepayment, and later — money for supposed unforeseen expenses related to customs clearance. After receiving the money, the 'suppliers' disappeared, leaving buyers without cars and without communication. As part of the international investigation, law enforcement conducted 14 searches in Ukraine and Moldova, both at the homes of the involved parties and in their cars. It has been established that the organizer of the criminal activity is a 36-year-old citizen of Ukraine who had been living in Moldova for the past few years. At this point, at least five episodes of fraud have been documented, totaling more than two million hryvnias.

A man was called to Kyiv who was hired to renovate an apartment for a girl, but instead of doing the work, he robbed her home.

Meanwhile, an operation by law enforcement is ongoing in Cherkasy near a McDonald's restaurant, where a shooting involving an unknown man took place.

During the joint efforts of the law enforcement agencies of Ukraine and Moldova, a fraudulent scheme was uncovered that demanded money from citizens for the delivery of cars from the USA, but actually resulted in fake deliveries and financial loss for the buyers.
