Gate News message. On April 14, the Russian Federal Security Service (FSB) has recently arrested three Telegram investment channel operators, accusing them of manipulating stock prices through a “Pump&Dump” strategy between 2023 and 2024. The scheme involved more than 55k illegal trades affecting 19 large companies on the Moscow Exchange (Russia’s primary securities exchange). Research from Moscow State University shows that 11% of Telegram investment signals can have a significant impact on stock returns, and more than 60% of private investors rely on such signals to make decisions. The Bank of Russia said it will continue monitoring abnormal trades and warned that wrongdoing bloggers face “punishment is inevitable.” Experts note that manipulative signals are typically presented in emotionally charged language, promise quick profits, and do not disclose risks; investors should prioritize advice from licensed advisors.
