A KGB spy who caused havoc for the West is believed to have been scammed out of tens of thousands...DUH...:duh:

Gerontiy Lazovik thought he was helping Russian law enforcement get close to criminals, but he was tricked into throwing the equivalent of just over ?82,000 out of a balcony in Moscow. The notorious veteran spy, now aged 92, was defrauded of the life savings he kept with his wife in their apartment.

He was called by scammers via video link who were pretending to be the head of a government agency and his assistant using image substitution technology. Reports said one scammer pretended to be Moscow Mayor Sergei Sobyanin, one of President Vladimir Putins cronies.

The scammers told him on receiving a pre-arranged signal to throw a package containing $100,000 from his balcony to a waiting conspirator standing below. The dodgy group convinced the KGB pensioner he was participating in an operation to catch criminals seeking to defraud him and his wife.

The victim eventually realised that he had become a victim of fraud and contacted law enforcement, said the prosecutors office. A 20-year-old courier who received part of the money from the pensioner was caught red-handed.

Searches remain underway for other scammers, amid reports that many such schemes are masterminded from Ukraine, taking advantage of the gullibility of Russians....:rofl:
