A subscriber contacted us and asked us to check the Telegram channel "Optovyy Sklad" (Wholesale Warehouse).
We are reporting: recently, channels have been actively spreading on Telegram that, under the guise of selling confiscated goods, offer citizens to purchase products at suspiciously low prices. These resources use an avatar with the Belarusian flag but have no relation to government bodies and are created solely to deceive and steal your money.We conducted a thorough analysis of the Telegram channel "Optovyy Sklad" and identified key signs of fraud:
Complete anonymity. The channel lacks a digital footprint: no website, social media pages, or other public data. The project owners are unknown, making it impossible to verify. Lack of contacts and address. There is no information about a real pickup address or working contact details, depriving buyers of the opportunity to make claims in case of deception. Fictitious guarantees. Promises of a one-year warranty and a 30-day return are not supported by legal data and therefore have no legal force. Suspiciously low prices. Goods in "Optovyy Sklad" are sold at prices significantly below market value, without confirmation of their legal origin. This is a classic sign of fraud. Prepayment scheme. The requirement to pay a 50% prepayment is a standard move by scammers to get money before disappearing.
Check sellers before buying, demand legal data and real reviews. If you are offered an unusually good deal, it is almost always a trap.
