Chernihiv Oblast police have recorded another case of internet fraud: a local woman who was looking for easy online income lost more than 100,000 hryvnias to scammers. The fraudsters lured her with promises of quick profits through simple tasks — liking social media posts, buying virtual goods, or watching videos in exchange for payment. Officers are urging residents to think critically about any advertisements promising instant online earnings and to never transfer money at the request of strangers. Anyone who receives a suspicious offer or has fallen victim to fraud is encouraged to contact the police immediately.
