Must read

Cases of fraud have become more frequent in Ukraine. In Bukovina, law enforcement officers detained counterfeiters for selling “currency” in the western regions. This was reported by the Department of Strategic Investigations of the National Police.

“The defendants “specialized” in counterfeiting foreign currency banknotes in denominations of 100 new dollars and 200 euros. Operatives of the Department of Strategic Investigations in the Chernivtsi region of the National Police exposed the illegal activities of persons selling counterfeit dollars. It was established that for several months a group of local residents had been selling counterfeit dollars and euros in the Chernivtsi and Ivano-Frankivsk regions. They sold counterfeit money in small quantities directly to residents of the region and handed it over to currency exchange offices. The criminals distributed the proceeds from the sale among all members of the criminal group. It also became known during the investigation that in November 2023, the defendants purchased an ATV for counterfeit $3,000 in the city of Vorokhta. Based on the evidence collected, two counterfeiters were notified of suspicion.”– the message says.
