Turkey arrests 201 in fraud ring including 9 Israelis
The Turkish authorities announced the arrest of 201 individuals, including 9 Israelis, as part of an investigation into an international fraudulent network targeting investors through fake platforms for trading foreign currencies and digital currencies. The security operation, involving law enforcement agencies, intelligence services, and INTERPOL units, focused on call centers and 27 companies in Istanbul and Mugla. The network targeted victims across Europe, Asia, and Africa through online advertisements promising high returns. The network listed fake profits to persuade victims to deposit new funds and demanded additional payments before transferring the money to accounts outside Turkey. The network's transactions amounted to around 13 billion Turkish Lira (approximately 266.4 million USD) over two years, with assets worth about 1.5 billion Lira seized, including cars, real estate, and bank accounts. Investigations are still ongoing to determine the roles of those involved and the extent of the money smuggled.
