A disturbing case from Ufa highlights how a phone scam can target a vulnerable resident and exploit trust for a large amount of money. A young disabled resident became the focal point of a fraudulent scheme after a caller masquerading as a representative of a major financial institution managed to gain her confidence, convincing her to refinance existing loans on what were described as highly favorable terms. The supposed agent pressed for speed, urging the victim to complete all transactions in a single sitting to avoid missing out on the deal. The incident, reported by the TV channel 360, paints a sobering picture of the kind of pressure tactics scammers use to lock victims into rushed decisions and irreversible transfers.
