The Center for Counteracting Disinformation under the National Security and Defense Council reports that Ukrainians are receiving SMS messages urging them to send information about the Armed Forces of Ukraine in exchange for a monetary reward.

The CPI recalls that any cooperation with the enemy can be equated with treason and punished under martial law with imprisonment for up to 15 years or life imprisonment.

By sending out such messages, the Russians want to get important information and use it against the Ukrainian army. In addition, by offering money for this, they feed their message of “Ukraine's extreme poverty”. Like, Ukrainians are ready for anything for the sake of money. However, if Ukrainians have become poorer (although this problem is exaggerated), the reason for this is solely Russian aggression against Ukraine.
