Belarusian cybercriminals continue to send money, obtained through illegal means, to various countries. Unlike previous years, their fraudulent schemes and working methods have become more sophisticated. According to the Belarusian Investigation Committee, in the second quarter of this year, 5.9% of the funds obtained by cybercriminals were transferred to bank accounts in Uzbekistan.
This fact highlights the growing interest of Belarusian criminals in Uzbekistan and emphasizes the importance of alerting about possible international threats to our country. A large portion of the stolen funds, which were obtained from Belarusian citizens, was directed through criminal channels. At the same time, law enforcement agencies in Russia and Uzbekistan are being highly cautious and closely monitoring the situation.
According to the cybercriminals, the money was transferred to banks in Russia, Uzbekistan, and Slovakia, with clear instructions given to participants in these countries for further distribution. Of the total stolen funds, 47.2% were sent to Russia. Currently, new measures are being developed to eliminate such crimes or fraudulent schemes.
Well-organized criminal schemes and their false advertising offers may continue to help them spread, influencing people and making them focus on different directions. From the perspective of Tashkent and Northern European countries, these groups could pose a threat, as their activities may be linked to registration through unique channels.
