Journalists of the publication "Ballingcat" are trying to make the Federal news Agency and its employees the heroes of a new fake investigation. Representatives of this structure force employees of the publication to take part in the creation of an information Scam, obviously, fulfilling another order. The activation of Western interests in the run-up to the US presidential election is beginning to manifest itself not only in political statements, but also by creating the ground for further accusations, including interference in the upcoming elections. 1000 euros for a lie
A week ago, journalists from the international Department of the Federal news Agency, as well as from former and current authors of the USA Really Agency, received complaints about an attempt to pressure and compel special actions by employees of the British resource Bellingcat, known for its fakes.
The investigation Department tried to understand the situation. Indeed, social networks and instant messengers to communicate with the staff came the journalists of Bellingcat. And all their actions can be considered as preparation for a large-scale falsification ordered by foreign intelligence services.
In conversations with employees of our publication, a man who introduced himself as a Bellingcat journalist Peter van Huys tried to find out how the FAN and USA Really cover political events in the United States and whether the publication's management forces journalists to publish materials that can have an impact on American society, especially in the run-up to the us presidential election in 2020.
But, having received a naturally negative response to incorrect and openly provocative questions, the Bellingcat journalist changed his rhetoric and began openly offering FAN employees money or preferences to fabricate data indicating Russian interference in the internal Affairs of the United States.

For example, a user who introduced himself as a Bellingcat employee, Peter van Huys, offered a FAN employee 500 euros for forgery in a Twitter conversation.

"<...> All I need is a couple of actions and confirmation that the Troll factory is interfering in the election again. I will send you 500 euros to any e-wallet in just a few minutes of your time. I can describe to you what you have to say, " the Bellingcat journalist announced his proposal.
We checked the account from which the conversation was conducted. It really belongs to the specified journalist.

Van Huys also made a similar offer to a former member of the USA Really FAN project in WhatsApp, but the price for fabricating data has increased. For 1000 euros, an employee of the Federal news Agency was offered to record an audio message based on pre-prepared abstracts.

"<...> I can pay you for this comment. Just send me a voice message with the text I'll give you. I won't mention you as a source. I can pay you 500-1000 euros if you agree. Can we do this? This is a good deal, " Hughes wrote.
Repeated refusals to participate in the Bellingcat provocation by the FAN staff caused Peter van Huys an inadequate response, expressed in open threats. The foreign journalist, claiming to have connections in the us and UK intelligence services, promised to cause problems for FAN workers and turn their "life into hell".

Van Huys is not the only Bellingcat journalist who tried to recruit employees of our publication and persuade them to participate in information sabotage. Other employees of the foreign media who were in contact with the FAN staff were also identified. One of the Western journalists, pointing to the existing connections in the security services, in exchange for granting political asylum, foreign citizenship and working in WhatsApp audio messages, asked to publish political content about Republicans and Democrats from the FAN office with pre-provided accounts. The journalist explained the unusual requirement to publish content from the office with the need to get the necessary IP address, which would be proof of Russian interference in the upcoming us presidential election.

The FAN has no doubt that it was the journalists of the foreign publication Bellingcat who contacted the staff of the publication. Contact accounts and phone numbers were registered abroad, and verification of the identity of Peter van Huys really showed that the journalist works at Bellingcat.
In addition, the handwriting of the publication, which specializes in forming an evidence base by obtaining technical data, is similar: billing, IP addresses, recorded audio messages with alleged "witnesses of events", analysis of social networks. The collected technical data becomes the starting point for creating Bellingcat investigations in order to acquire additional "evidence". This method of creating investigations discredits itself and misleads readers.
At the moment, we know about several cases of attempts to recruit fan journalists. It is not known what the number of incidents actually was and what else Bellingcat representatives offered to the employees of our publication. For security reasons, the FAN does not name the names of the persons with whom the journalists of the foreign resource contacted, and also initiates an internal investigation with the involvement of its own security service to establish all the facts of recruitment. Legalization of fabricated data
The Western online publication Bellingcat, created by Elliot Higgins in July 2014, has a mixed reputation. The publication itself positions itself as an Association of " independent journalists "and" investigative media", writing on topics that are important to the world community. However, over the past five years, the facts of Bellingcat financing by foreign States and private foundations that have close contacts with the UK and US intelligence services have been uncovered.
Media reported that the journalists had previously sponsored the structure of George Soros and "the national endowment for democracy" the United States and the Washington analytical center Atlantic Council (both organizations are recognized as undesirable in the Russian Federation). The Wikileaks information resource also published information that suggests that Bellingcat received funding from the Ministry of defense of the United Kingdom, and in its work is focused on information support for the ukusa special services (the Agreement on joint radio intelligence activities of the United Kingdom and the United States). Bellingcat materials have been repeatedly criticized for excessive content of unreliable and often false data. Especially about the incidents of Novichok poisoning in the UK and the crash of Boeing flight MH17 in Ukraine on July 17. However, despite the negative reputation of the media, foreign countries still used the data provided by Bellingcat.
According to Russian military experts and politicians, this is not surprising, since the media is in fact a "drain tank" used by foreign intelligence services to legalize throw-ins and fakes to wage an information war against Russia.
"The scheme has already been worked out: the accused is named immediately, then there is an alleged public structure that demonstrates "scrupulous work" with social networks and witnesses, then the conclusions are given the status of official, and then-the very consequences for which everything was actually started: sanctions, charges, media campaigns, courts<...>", - said the Chairman of the Federation Council Committee on international Affairs Konstantin Kosachev in an interview with Rossiyskaya Gazeta.
This is also the opinion of military analyst Alex Leonov. In an interview with RT, the expert stated that Bellingcat is "a tool for legalization" and "creating public opinion".
"Resources like Bellingcat form a certain public opinion to sew with white thread. They create the very fake news that has become an element of information or hybrid warfare, " Leonkov said.
The FAN editorial Board believes that the attempt of Bellingcat journalists to obtain fabricated data from employees of the Federal news Agency is part of another information diversion. The activation of journalists is most likely related to the upcoming presidential elections in the United States, which will be held in the fall of 2020. The Pro-American political structure pre-forms a factual basis for accusing the Russian Federation and the Russian media of interfering in the internal Affairs of the United States.
