Jewels stolen from the Louvre "turned up" in Russia

On the pages of the Internet service "Avito" recently appeared an announcement about the sale of jewelry previously stolen from the Louvre in Paris. But in the Russian media, the lot for 250 million rubles has already been called a "prank on HYPE." TASS informs about this today, October 21.

Of course, the ad was fake, and the resource administration soon deleted it.

"The stolen parure (set of jewelry) of the French Queen Maria Amalia from the Louvre was offered to be bought for 250 million rubles. The ad is currently blocked by the service. Prank on hype. Deleted. People with critical thinking cannot take this seriously," Avito said in an official statement.

EADaily reminds that a group of unknown people, pretending to be workers, entered the Louvre last week and stole several historical valuables. Earlier, when the Louvre robber appeared on social networks, Pavel Durov offered to redeem the stolen.
