Large scale implementation of plastic payment cards has caused a new type of crime-stealing money, available on personal bank cards, using special technical devices (skimming equipment). Until recently there have been no special regulations in the penal law, establishing responsibility neither for fabrication or sale of skimming equipment, nor for the use of such devices for stealing money from bank accounts. Upon coming into force of the Federal Law of the Russian Federation dated June 8, 2015 No. 153-ФЗ «On revision in Clause 187 of the Russian Federation Penal Code», establishing also responsibility for fabrication, purchase, storage, transportation for the purpose of use or sale, as well as sale of technical devices (including skimming equipment), designed for illegal receipt, issue, transfer of money, the potential of law enforcement authorities to fight these crimes has been remarkably boosted.
