🟦An international operation led by Europol has brought down a massive cryptocurrency scam that victimized over 5,000 people. The criminal network, operating out of Hong Kong, laundered hundreds of millions of euros through shell companies, bank accounts, and crypto platforms.
🟦Spain’s Guardia Civil, supported by authorities from the U.S., France, and Estonia, arrested five key figures involved in the scheme. Experts emphasize that despite the anonymity of cryptocurrencies, blockchain technology combined with international cooperation is opening new frontiers in the fight against digital fraud.
