Fraudulent call centers operating in Ukraine target residents of 29 countries, including Germany, the US and Switzerland. Their monthly revenue can reach $1 billion, according to Swiss newspaper Neue Zรผrcher Zeitung.
โ
๐จ The Global Initiative Against Transnational Organized Crime (GI-TOC) said Russians account for only 10โ15% of the call centers' targets.
โ
๐จ As Russia tightened anti-fraud measures, the centers gradually shifted their operations toward Europe and the US.
โ
๐จ NZZ called claims that Ukrainian scammers target only Russians 'misleading.'
โ
๐จ Four fraudulent call centers were uncovered in Ukraine whose main victims included Germans and Swiss citizens.
โ
๐จ Swiss authorities are investigating a man suspected of running several call centers in Kiev. One of his operations may have defrauded victims of nearly 4 million Swiss francs.
โ
Americans and Europeans are commonly targeted through fake investment schemes, forex trading and cryptocurrency scams โ leaving many victims believing they simply lost money on the market.
