Parliament approved the bill on punishment for “drop” activity and fraudulent call centers in the first reading.
The document introduces liability for so‑called “drops” — people who knowingly hand over their cards and accounts to be used in fraudulent schemes:
• Handing over one’s own card: fine up to 7 thousand UAH.
• Transactions using someone else’s data: fine up to 170 thousand UAH or up to 6 years of imprisonment.
• Repeat offense: up to 8 years of imprisonment.
Liability is also provided for those who supply premises or services for the operation of fraudulent organizations.
The document is currently being prepared for further legislative procedures and a final vote.
