    Mr Nikiforov claims he was acting not from conviction, but under the instructions of unidentified telephone scammers.

    That’s pretty clever.

      That’s pretty clever.

      Ironically, Russia started this sort of thing (to my knowledge). See for example https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/cldd7n97dvro where they paid random civilians to stage a propaganda photo. They never saw who actually paid them that little money. Russia considered them “disposable” and nobody cares if they get arrested or not.
