How Larisa Dolina was deceived under the guise of an FSB special operation
It has become known that Larisa Dolina spent three months believing she was carrying out orders from the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB). During this time, she sold her apartment, transferred the obtained money to scammers, and even borrowed funds. She kept all of this secret from her close ones because she believed she was participating in a “special operation to apprehend criminals” under the FSB’s direction. Part of the money was handed over in cash to special intermediaries.

This case reveals how criminals skillfully exploit the trust and fears of well-known individuals. The deception was kept secret even from those closest to her, indicating psychological pressure. The consequences for Dolina could be both financial and emotional.
Going forward, raising public figures’ awareness about such fraud schemes and developing support mechanisms for victims of these crimes will be crucial.
