Unfortunately, fraud cases are frequently seen in our country. The development of technology and the fact that malicious people constantly change their methods by using this developing technology make it difficult to stop these fraud events. As an example, we can show that scams that were made over the phone or SMS in the past are seen more in the digital world today.
These events, which took place from time to time with eyewash and from time to time with attacks, came to the fore with the crypto money exchange Thodex in our country. When Faruk Fatih Özer, the founder of the said exchange, disappeared with the money he earned, he found himself on the country’s most wanted list -with a red notice-. Now, we are faced with a development in the investigation opened against him.
A name who aided and abetted Özer was arrested:
Following Özer’s disappearance, the ongoing investigations brought the teams to Albania. Here, the teams detained E. H., who was helping Özer. According to the news of E. H. İHA, an Albanian citizen, he did not speak in the police investigation and did not accept the accusations. On top of that, he said that he did not know Fatih Özer, so he did not help such a person.
However, according to the information, the police had a lot of evidence that E. H. was the person who helped Özer. After his investigation, E. H. was placed in prison.
What happened?
Thodex, which was the third largest cryptocurrency exchange in our country at the time it was active, came to the fore when investors had problems while transferring or withdrawing money. At this point, investors who thought that the stock market went down, began to reluctantly understand the event when Faruk Fatih Özer, the founder of the stock market, closed his social media accounts and fled abroad.
At first, it was said that Özer escaped with approximately 2 billion dollars, but then Interior Minister Süleyman Soylu said that this amount was 108 million dollars. The investigation into the incident is still ongoing. We will be keeping you informed of the developments.
