Fraud operation under the guise of a beauty center: 10 detained

In the investigation initiated upon complaints made to the Public Order Branch Directorate Fraud Bureau, it was determined that the suspects contacted people under the name of the beauty center, after approximately 3 months of technical and physical follow-up.

It was determined that the suspects took credit card information from people they invited to their workplaces with the promise of providing service and made them sign fake promissory notes.

10 DETENTION

It was revealed that the suspects later initiated enforcement proceedings with these bills and made profits worth millions of lira.

Fraud Bureau teams carried out a simultaneous operation in Konya, Antalya and Erzurum, based in Istanbul, on September 23. 10 suspects were detained during the operation.

During the searches at the raided addresses, many documents and digital materials were seized.

While the proceedings of the suspects brought to the Istanbul Public Order Branch Directorate continue, it was learned that the number of detentions may increase after their interrogations.
