13 Call Center companies are being investigated by the SPAK special prosecutor’s office for fraud with serious consequences, suspected to have scammed dozens of European citizens by telephone operators in Albania.

Top Channel’s Anila Hoxha reports that the international investigation was requested by Germany, according to which there is a platform where citizens are contacted by phone or social networks and then asked and persuaded to invest large sums of money in stock markets or other dubious financial activities, resulting in false or simply traps for losing the funds.

It is learned that there are 13 Call Center companies, but the investigation is being kept secret and there is no yet information about their names.

European citizens have fallen prey to a financial fraud scheme by being contacted by ‘trained’ ‘specialists’ in the field of trade, or by so-called intermediaries and managers. They are deceived by investing money abroad in fake deposits or financial activities.
