Decisive actions against cryptocurrency scammers earning over EUR 600 million

Nine people suspected of money laundering have been arrested during a synchronised operation that took place in three countries at the same time. The suspects set up a cryptocurrency money laundering network that scammed victims out of over EUR 600 million. Eurojust, the EU’s judicial cooperation hub, ensured that French, Belgian, Cypriot, German and Spanish authorities worked together to take the network down.
