Police charge eight people with cryptocurrency investment fraud
Czech police have charged eight natural persons and two commercial companies in connection with the operation of fraudulent internet platforms and call centres focused on cryptocurrency investments. According to the prahanadlani.cz server, this was confirmed by Barbora Kudláčková from the press department of the National Centre against Organised Crime (NCOZ).
The perpetrators offered clients attractive investment opportunities in the field of cryptocurrencies, but never transferred the received financial resources into digital assets at all. The assets seized represent a value in the millions of crowns.
The case is being investigated by NCOZ, a specialised police unit focused on organised crime and economic criminal activity.
