94 fraudulent call centers suspended operations as part of a large-scale special operation, — Office of the Prosecutor General
Just since the start of last week:
411 searches were conducted;
operations of 94 fraudulent call centers were halted;
1794 operator workstations were dismantled.
Investigative actions took place in the Kyiv region, Dnipropetrovsk region, Odesa region, Lviv region, Vinnytsia region, Zakarpattia, Zaporizhzhia, Ivano-Frankivsk region and other regions.
More than 3336 units of computer equipment, 1346 phones, 5238 SIM cards, 20 crypto wallets and 90 bank cards were seized during the searches.
The schemes varied, but the goal was the same: to steal other people’s money. Organizers recruited staff with foreign language skills, trained operators using specially prepared scripts, and in many cases tested employees on a polygraph, trying to protect the criminal activity from exposure.
Among the victims are citizens of Ukraine, Israel, Kazakhstan, Lithuania, Latvia, and other countries of the European Union and Central Asia. According to preliminary estimates, they suffered losses of over 100 million UAH.
