Dutch Police Arrest Key Suspect in €100M Global Crypto Investment Scam

Dutch and European authorities disrupted a large global crypto investment fraud network active since at least 2021 that allegedly employed ~700 people across ~20 call centers and defrauded victims—potentially tens of thousands—of very large sums (reports cite over €100M per month and ~€25M losses in the Netherlands). Multiple coordinated arrests, an extradition, and removal of digital infrastructure were carried out while investigators trace financial flows and examine asset seizure options.
