Did you call for a Sniper?
The Moscow mayor's office is quietly recruiting volunteers for the war through Mosgaz, Mosvodokanal and other budgetary organizations. Investigation of "Important Stories"
At the end of May, the same ads appeared in regional communities on the VKontakte social network at the same time, inviting them to get a contract service in Moscow. The requirements were low - citizenship of the Russian Federation and age no more than 60 years, and payment was high - 620 thousand rubles in the first month of service and more than 300 thousand in each subsequent one.
In order to receive all payments, it was proposed to find a job in one of the Moscow enterprises - Mosgaz, Gormost, UEC or Mosvodokanal - before concluding a contract with the Ministry of Defense.
But officially, neither Mosgaz, nor Gormost, nor any other Moscow enterprises post vacancies for contract soldiers. The correspondent of "Important Stories" under the guise of such a person contacted the author of the ad. He was given the following explanations: in addition to payment from the Ministry of Defense, "the mayor's office will pay an additional 350 thousand net" and will pay another 75 thousand during the entire period of the contract. "We act quickly, we are urged," promised the interlocutor, who introduced herself as Lydia which being on vacation in Cuba, gave the phone number of "her deputy Tatyana Valerievna." This number, according to information from leaked databases, belongs to Tatyana Valerievna Yarikova, an employee of the Moscow United Electric Grid Company (MOESK, part of Rosseti).
