Aussies revealed as prime targets of Israel crypto scam syndicate

Evidence found that Australians were among the top countries targeted in a sophisticated cryptocurrency investment scam network, which has suspected kingpins in Israel.

Australian households have been identified as the top priority of the social network of fraudsters in the digital currency customer service center, suspected that the Internet is run by Israeli crime leaders.

After comprehensive raids on four Portuguese customer service centres and 11 houses, authorities in Portugal, France, Lithuania and Estonia found evidence that Australians were one of the main overall target countries. The news came from a report in the Australian newspaper on February 23.

The raid arrested 15 people and seized the use of digital currency worth 1.46 million dollars.

According to the report, fraudsters in such customer service centers are suspected of using publicity on social platforms to seduce victims and provide profitable and promising investment opportunities.

The private research firm told the news media that Australians were especially favored by fraudsters, their relative financial fortunes, and their reported lack of special investigation by the federal government's official travel authorities:

"Australia's wealth, coupled with the fact that state and federal authorities have been unwilling or unable to investigate online investment fraud, has made the country a target for the international criminal gangs behind it."

As a result, many Australians are "friendly" and "ideologically avant-garde", and they are more likely to pursue Internet connections-especially if they press the right keys, explains Marco Solomons, the most senior inspector at IFW Global, a personal intelligence information company.

Australia and Canada are both vying for the championship. They are all rich countries, and they are less likely to accept disciplinary investigation, analysis or detection.

Temos says many stolen digital currencies are used to support fraudsters' luxurious lifestyles:

"some Jews have become very effective by blackmailing Australians, squeezing old-age insurance and retirement deposits from the Australian economy."

"people talking about people who fly around on private planes have a lot of property, real estate, luxury cars and cash. They can travel around the world at will, and they choose to buy cruise ships, "Temos added.

Although the European police report that a number of countries have stolen 3.1 million dollars, in their view, the real figure may be around tens of millions of euros.

Compared with other resource-rich countries, Temos urged Australia to step up law enforcement at the state, federal and international levels in order to reduce its influence on Australian investors.

Despite some reports that Australians lost $2 billion to investment fraud in 2021, the Australian Competition and Consumer Commission (ACCC) reported that Australians lost $323.7 million. According to the consumer watchdog Scamwatch database, Australians lost $568.6 million in 2022, an increase of 75.6 per cent.

According to ACCC, $221 million of the fraud losses were paid for by the application of data encryption.

In the first month of 2023, the victim lost an additional $53.4 million.

In response, the Australian Stock Investment Board released a list of "Top Ten ways to find password Fraud" in November to raise awareness of the problem.

In July 2022, ACCC gradually experimented with a network security service that automatically withdrew from cheating websites. The experiment was basically successful, and many login password fraud websites were relatively fast to the bottom line.
