Galkin recorded a video address to explain to all friends, colleagues and acquaintances: they are deceived by scammers.
“Cases of fraud in my name and in the name of Alla have increased. From different phones we write to our friends, colleagues with a request to transfer money. We do not ask anyone for money, we have not contacted anyone with such requests.
Our esteemed friends, a great many people were responsive and wired money. Please don’t do it, it’s a scam, they are scammers working on our behalf. We do not have and will not ask for money. Please save your funds!” said the showman.
Fans supported Galkin in the comments, telling about their cases related to scammers: someone met with fraudulent bank employees, and someone was defrauded of money by their grandmother for a non-existent service.
Galkin and his family left Russia after the war in Ukraine. Subsequently, he made several loud statements and admitted that for the moment he does not intend to return to Moscow. But Alla Pugacheva returned at the end of August and took the children to school, but then she left the Russian capital and moved to Israel.
