Belgian scammer arrested in Catania for cyber crimes
A 27-year-old serial fraudster from Belgium has been arrested by police in Catania on a European arrest warrant for cybercrimes. According to the accusation, he is responsible for a series of scams carried out by a criminal organization created to commit cyber fraud: he would have gained the trust of victims, using various strategies, to steal sensitive data or to access their bank accounts and empty them.
The most common technique used by the man is to send a link through a messaging chat to request money, pretending to be a acquaintance of the victim. The 27-year-old, already known to Belgian authorities where he has been definitively convicted for similar crimes and thefts, was located by officers in a luxury hotel on Viale Kennedy. After the notification of the European arrest warrant, he was arrested and taken to prison.
