"Represented by the representative of the online store, found out everything about the product, then said that I would show his photo to the customer. For about 20 minutes I called back and confirmed the order. I accepted a settlement account for which the required amount is to be paid, and then said that the transfer will go from 3 to 7 days plus taxation. Need a map of any bank. When the card was, I sent a man to the cash machine allegedly to receive a transfer, "- says the detainee.
