Ministry of Internal Affairs: in Russia they began to fake fines for traffic violations

The TASS agency got acquainted with the materials of the Ministry of the Interior. The intelligence service said that scammers began to imitate “Letters of Happiness”, allegedly recorded by cameras and video recording cameras. Fakes are sent on behalf of the traffic police, contain data allegedly recorded by special equipment in automatic mode. Notifications of “fake” fines come to e -mail with bank details.

The Ministry of Internal Affairs notes that the recipient of the fine has been replaced: instead of “Management of the Federal Treasury”, an account of the electronic system (SBP) is indicated. According to the agency, attackers even send photos of a car that allegedly violated traffic rules. Upon receipt of fake forms, the authorities are advised to apply to law enforcement agencies.

Fraudulent notifications of fines have long come through applications on the phone, but without photo confirmation. Now the materials of the Ministry of Internal Affairs describe a more advanced scheme that would not be possible without a leakage of personal data. You can recognize “fake” fines by checking the Uin on the traffic police website or public services. Another way is to reconcile bank details of the recipients of a fine.

From January 1, 2025, fines for traffic violations have grown in Russia. On average, the penalty increased by 50%. The discount for payment during the first 20 days has sharply decreased – from 50% to 25%, and the discount does not apply to all types of violations.
