I am not from Belarus, I tried search on google what LOBSTR is and found that it is a stellar online wallet.
Just and advice ignore that email, if the email is connected to another important account it is better to changing with new one because there is a possibility that your email has been exposed by a scammer.
Topic: High-Tech Crime Department, Belarus (Read 135 times)
If someone contacted you first, then it's a sign of a scam, definitely police or any crime department will come forward and it's through email? I'll probably just ignore this one. This is somewhat and old trick and the moment you try to contact them and you start to give them more information then you fall for the trick.
This is similar to some SMS I frequently received, that I won something or I need to update my info on some banking apps. I'll just totally ignore and delete it and I suggest you do the same.

I often receive letters of this content by e-mail, I delete them immediately. This is all either spam or an attempt at phishing, it is better not to open such letters.
If the police are interested in you, they will not send you a letter, but will come to your work or home.

The LOBSTR I knew is crypto wallet, I never heard anything about LOBSTR scam but you are the only one who have the answer, have you ever join any project by the name LOBSTR? Do you use LOBSTR wallet? If the answer is NO then all this attempt is clearly scam, you need to get rid of that email
This is a pretty obvious malicious email, probably some scam or phishing or malware. Don't click on any links, just put it in spam.
Belarus' police won't be contacting you regarding some shitcoins out of the blue, especially since right now they are very busy beating protestors. And when someone offers you to give you some alleged money, it's an immediate red flag, because that's how all the scammers operate - with a promise of easy money.

I'm not from Belarus and also haven't heard of LOBSTR. Anyways, the best way to deal with this is to be very skeptical in the beginning, because you really don't know how they obtain your email address. Second, High-Tech Crime Department? is there such an office in Belarus? Third, in crypto space, we always say, don't trust by verify. So it's better to check first the legitimacy of the office and the people behind - Pavel Popov.
Years ago i received such an unsolicited msg in Gmail.

This was from this 'National Contact Point of Cybercrime combating of Belarus.' There was really an attached letter with more details.
I dont know how they knew my email address. I asked LOBSTR and they said it was not scam. Later I reported my case to this Belarus body with help of LOBSTR. Once Pavel replied to me that somebody was in the prison. But later no matter how many times i wrote to him, he never reply to me again.
Have you received any from Pavel? Is that scam?
