Determine the owner of the Yandex.Money wallet

How to find out the owner of a Yandex wallet

In the modern world, more and more transactions are performed using electronic payment systems. One of the most popular platforms is Yandex.Money.

Yandex company works every day to secure the system and keep money in the accounts of its clients. However, scammers are more cunning and can hack the electronic wallet of an innocent citizen. It is in these cases, most often, that users seek to find out the owner of the Yandex.Money wallet. But this is not the only possible reason. Someone is afraid to transfer funds to unfamiliar online stores and wants to make sure that the payment is secure. And for someone it is much easier to make a payment to a freelancer, knowing his personal data.

Can I find out the owner of the Yandex.Money wallet?

Unfortunately no. Its impossible. Personal data of users is strictly confidential information, and the company has no right to disclose it. For the leak of personal information, the organization can be punished with huge fines. Therefore, it is impossible to find out who is the owner of Yandex.Money, even if "very, very necessary."

The only structure that has access to this information is the prosecutors office and the investigating authorities. They can, by a court order, gain access to the personal data of Yandex.Wallet users.
But what if the money was mistakenly transferred or you became a victim of scammers?

The only correct and legal way to get your money back is to contact technical support. If very little time has passed after the payment was made, there is a high probability that the transaction will be blocked and the funds will be returned.

The user will be prompted to write an application for a refund, as well as to confirm the fact of incorrect sending and the amount of the transfer. In most cases, everything is decided in favor of the owner of the money and they are returned after a certain time. An internal investigation can take anywhere from a couple of hours to three months.

If the fraudsters managed to withdraw money, and technical support cannot help, there is only one way out - contacting the Ministry of Internal Affairs. After accepting the application, law enforcement agencies will find out who the fraudster is and where he spent the money. Unfortunately, this method will not help you to return money to Yandex.Wallet as soon as possible. Well have to wait until the end of the investigative actions and the capture of the attacker.

To protect yourself from losing money, we recommend using only trusted services and online stores. If you plan to purchase a product or service from little-known suppliers, arrange for delivery by courier to your home or delivery services. In this case, payment can be made only after receiving the goods.
