It was reported that 15 people were detained in the “crypto money fraud” operation organized in Serbia and Germany under the coordination of the European Union Police Organization (Europol).
In a written statement from Europol, it was stated that a gang that defrauded its victims over a fake cryptocurrency site by saying that they called from the call center was busted.
In the statement, it was noted that the network, which gave huge profits on the first investments made from the fake cryptocurrency site, then directed its victims to deposit large sums.
They defrauded 2 million euros
In this way, it was emphasized that the network, which defrauded its victims in Germany for approximately 2 million euros, also inflicted millions of euros on many people in Switzerland, Canada and Australia.
It was noted that within the scope of the operation, in which a digital wallet with approximately 1 million dollars of crypto money, 50 thousand euros in cash and 3 cars were confiscated, 15 people, including 14 members of the network in Serbia and 1 person in Germany, were detained.
In the statement, it was stated that it is estimated that there are many victims who have not yet filed a complaint despite being defrauded by the network. (AA)
