Boyarsky: measures to combat telephone fraud will be expanded

First of all, it is necessary to observe “digital hygiene”. Legislative levers also come to the rescue. Recently, the government submitted a very voluminous bill to the State Duma, which will offer several additional tools and mechanisms to combat telephone fraud and fraud in the field of Internet technologies. For example, the refusal to accept international numbers, Boyarsky explained. According to him, it is also possible to refuse advertising SMS-mailings or a ban on receiving messages during a telephone conversation, for example, with a code from the victim’s account. After reading this code, you essentially give away part of your digital life, you lose control of your account from the same “public services”, for example. Now it will be technically impossible. SMS will only come after you put the phone down. Thus, this vicious circle of the impact of the criminal on the victim will be broken, said Boyarsky. The Chairman of the State Duma Committee on Information Policy stressed that after the call, the person will now have time to make "the only right decision.".
