In the last 24 hours, authorities registered 23 fraud cases across the Republic of Moldova, and in 18 of them victims transferred significant amounts of money. The total damage exceeds 3.7 million lei.
According to the National Police, the cases were recorded in Chisinau, Balti, Soroca, and Ungheni.
“Criminals continue contacting people through fake calls and messages while pretending to be employees of public institutions, representatives of banks, Moldcell and Premier Energy companies, or couriers. Their goal is to obtain money, banking data, and personal information,” the Police stated.
Authorities warned citizens that no institution requests card details, confirmation codes, banking passwords, or urgent money transfers over the phone. Police advised people to immediately end suspicious calls, verify information directly with the relevant institution, and notify law enforcement authorities without delay.
