Abstract: The article discusses current problems of combating fraudulent actions committed remotely through the use of mobile (cellular) communications and information and telecommunication networks, and using the example of the experience of the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic, the features of countering this category of crimes are revealed. The authors analyze the results of the activities of internal affairs bodies in the Kabardino-Balkarian Republic for 2021-2022 and formulate the basic principles of successfully combating fraudulent actions committed remotely.
The purpose of the work is to critically understand the problems and gaps associated with the identification, disclosure and investigation of fraudulent crimes carried out through the use of information and communication networks and mobile (cellular) communications, as well as to determine the highest priority areas for combating this category of crimes.
The authors come to several conclusions. Firstly, the activities of the internal affairs bodies of the Russian Federation to combat fraud committed remotely are often complicated by the inability to bring the perpetrators to justice, as well as the lack of effective mechanisms for the return of funds lost by citizens as a result of remote actions of fraudsters using information and telecommunication networks and means mobile (cellular) communications.
Secondly, the priority and most effective approach to combating this category of crime is to inform the Russian population about current threats created by fraudulent activities, the most common methods and techniques of misleading citizens of the Russian Federation used by criminals, as well as ways to protect themselves and their financial resources from illegal actions by following simple sets of rules and algorithms of actions in the event of remote contact with possible fraudsters.
Thirdly, the foundation for effectively countering fraudulent actions committed remotely should be a sufficient research base, methodological support for the activities of internal affairs bodies and a systematic study of this threat, allowing for the implementation of a preventive approach to combating such crimes, based, among other things, on forecasting promising technologies and ways to commit remote fraud.
