The security service of a large bank repeatedly recorded the geolocation of fraudulent calls to its customers. During searches, prisoners blocked the doors and tried to destroy banned equipment and black bookkeeping showing the proceeds of fraud on the Internet, which were handled by several dozen people directly from the Sailor's Silence cameras. In the cells of the pre-trial detention center, they found an actually full-fledged fraudulent call center: dozens of phones, hundreds of SIM cards, routers for Internet access, wireless headphones and microphones.
Reportedly, one of the initiators of this special operation was a large bank, which has long been trying to obtain searches in prisons: the bank's security service has repeatedly recorded the geolocation of fraudulent calls to its clients pointing to correctional institutions.
In the FSIN institutions - pre-trial detention centers, colonies and prisons - those under investigation and convicts are forbidden to use cellular communications, however, there are numerous cases of not only “smuggling” smartphones behind bars, but also the work of entire prison call centers, which resulted in a joint initiative of the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the FSB and the FSIN on blocking cellular communications in places of deprivation of liberty.
Employees of the SIZO "Matrosskaya Tishina" senior operative of the operational department Vladislav Ostapenko and the inspector of the regime of the department and supervision Sergei Voitko were detained by the police. In relation to them, the Main Investigative Directorate of the Investigative Committee in Moscow instituted criminal proceedings on the commission of crimes under Part 6 of Art. 290 (receiving a bribe on an especially large scale), part 1 of article 286 (abuse of power) and subsection "g" of part 2 of article 163 (extortion committed on a large scale) of the Criminal Code of the Russian Federation.
The technical expenses for the inmates for the "office assembly" amounted to 7 million rubles - the scale of the fraudulent call center becomes clear.
