The Verkhovna Rada of Ukraine 16 September passed a bill aimed at strengthening the fight against so‑called call centers and other fraudulent schemes. This was reported by Minister of Internal Affairs Ivan Vyhivskyi.
He emphasized that this is an important step that gives law enforcement more tools for operational and, most importantly, effective work.
As the head of the Interior Ministry noted, the bill supplements the Criminal Code of Ukraine with articles that provide liability, in particular for creating, leading, participating in, or recruiting people into the activities of electronic‑communication fraud organizations.
“Just the day before, police uncovered another fraudulent call center operating in Vinnytsia; nearly 40 people were inside the premises. Over the past few weeks, a number of such searches have been conducted. 1013 persons involved in illegal activities have been identified: 60 organizers, 37 so‑called ‘managers’ of the centers, and more than 900 participants in the activities,” Ivan Vyhivskyi emphasized.
