How a Russian woman tricked Wildberries
According to the Krasnoyarsk Territory Prosecutor's Office, a 23-year-old resident of Krasnoyarsk registered with the Wildberries online store and after choosing a payment method, noticed an unusual glitch.

Then the "purchases" became daily. The girl took a lot of goods from Wildberries, including cosmetics, bed linen, gadgets and jewelry.
The list ended with a hundred items and a check of 1.2 million rubles, when the online store discovered a glitch and blocked the user's account, MIA " Russia Today " quotes a message from the prosecutor's office of Krasnoyarsk Krai.
It turned out that the young woman was selling stolen items on other online platforms.
A Russian woman who deceived a marketplace faces up to 10 years in prison.
