The police found that an Arkhangelsk businesswoman posted an advertisement looking for a forwarder to deliver tulips from Moscow, and a man contacted her and offered his services.

The attacker found a driver to transport flowers, and after he set off along the route, the suspect changed the destination address.

“The unsuspecting driver took the entire consignment of flowers there.

The damage caused to the woman exceeded 2 million rubles,” the Ministry of Internal Affairs reported.

The goods were returned to the owner, police officers are establishing the remaining circumstances of the crime.

Florists, in a conversation with RT, previously gave Russians advice on choosing flowers for March 8th.
