The Central Bank of Russia plans to amend its list of fraud indicators by adding large transfers to personal accounts via the Fast Payment System (FPS). This was reported by the Meduza portal, citing Vadim Uvarov, head of the information security department at the Central Bank.

According to Uvarov, fraudsters have begun convincing Russian citizens to transfer funds from their accounts in other banks to their own accounts.

At the same time, banks will pay attention to such transfers if the client attempts to transfer funds to another person on the same day, with whom they have not had financial transactions in the past six months.

Financial institutions use six criteria to identify fraudulent transfers. For example, if the transfer is made to accounts previously involved in fraud, or if there is an ongoing criminal case against the recipient. Additionally, unusual phone activity of the client prior to the transfer is taken into account.

Vadim Uvarov noted that the need to update the list arises from the emergence of new schemes of deception by fraudsters.
