The Office of the Prosecutor General conducted a large-scale operation, as a result of which the operation of several fraudulent call centers was halted in the capital.

Organized groups of individuals, using rented office spaces, created an extensive infrastructure of fictitious financial services, which, under the guise of brokerage companies and well-known financial platforms, entice citizens to invest money in cryptocurrency or engage in profitable trading on stock exchanges.

In fact, they misappropriated the funds of citizens, including those from European countries.

During searches in the offices, computer equipment (over 650 CPU units and laptops), mobile phones, servers used in illegal activities, and other physical evidence relevant to the criminal proceedings were seized.

Currently, investigative actions are ongoing. The organizers of the illegal call centers are being identified.

On July 14, the Kyiv City Prosecutor's Office and district prosecutors also shut down illegal call centers. During the searches, more than 300 CPU units and laptops were seized.
