Extraterrestrial scam: a scammer disguised as an astronaut defrauded a woman of $ 30 to 'return home from orbit'

A 65-year-old Japanese woman was lured out of about $ 27 under the pretext of returning to Earth. According to Japanese media, the scammer posed as a Russian cosmonaut on the ISS who could not return home due to funding problems. MC Today.

"Cosmonaut" met a woman on Instagram back in June. He claimed to work on the International Space Station and collaborate with NASA and JAXA (Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency). Sometimes he disappeared, but he blamed the poor cellular connection on board. After a short correspondence, the swindler declared that he wanted to start life in Japan and confessed his love to the woman.

Then the "cosmonaut" began to ask the Japanese woman for money to cover the costs of landing the rocket to return to Earth. She transferred him the required amount, but after the request continued. In total, the woman made five transfers, but then she became suspicious and reported the “cosmonaut” to the police.

Now Japanese law enforcement is investigating it as an "international romance scam."

«Я поверила названиям реальных учреждений, таких как NASA и JAXA», — заявила пострадавшая.
