The Oktyabrsky District Court of the Poltava region elected a preventive measure for the manager of the company, Yulia Dyabina, who sold farmers nonexistent equipment.

On March 19, judge Larisa Golnik put her under house arrest that was not around the clock, as it became known from the register of court decisions and the official website of the court. The group consisted of seven individuals aged 28 to 44 years.

Fraudsters created about a dozen fictitious companies where, under the guise of selling agricultural equipment on the Internet, they lured money from the population. According to the cyber police of Ukraine, the group monthly enriched by 1 million UAH. The company allegedly was engaged in the sale of Korean and Belarusian mini-tractors.Sales advertisements were posted on the Internet. Prices for equipment were clearly very low, sometimes even 10 times. Gullible farmers who wanted to save fell into the hands of scammers. At the same time, they lost all their money. For greater confidence and gaining the status of entrepreneurs, the criminals opened several offices, one of which was located in Poltava. For this office scammers hired 2 managers. The police identified 19 entrepreneurs affected by criminals.
