| Operators working in the Call Center in Tirana |
Tirana police arrested a Call Center owner together with 3 accomplices after they deceived an Italian client by taking 108,000 euros from him.
Businesses, including employees, were not registered for taxes.
31-year-old O.F. was introduced to foreigners as if he were a stockbroker investing in Cryptocurrencies and Forex. But this money did not go for investment.
In collaboration with him were also M. K., A. L, and S. XH.
The Italian, who was deprived of 108,000 euros, had made transactions for a period of several months, with the idea that he was investing in stock exchanges to multiply his income.
But the money, instead of going to the stock exchange, ended up in the ownership of the people who worked at this Call Center.
The report was made by the Italian himself.
The detainees are accused by the police of fraud, concealment of income, non-payment of taxes, and illegal employment. The Tirana Prosecutor's Office is conducting investigations into these persons.
This is not the first time in Albania that the police arrested people for fraud through Call Centers.
