A fraud network consisting of 35 individuals was busted in the Turkish city of Adana. The group repeatedly sold the same apartment at a price below its market value. After a deal, the ring leader sent a message to one of the victims saying, 'Brother, I deceived you.' The buyer and the actual owner of the apartment filed a report with the cybercrime unit, which then uncovered the gang. The total amount of the fraud was found to be 7 million Turkish liras, which the criminals had converted into digital currencies and gold. Police operations were conducted in several cities, leading to the arrest of 35 suspects, including the gang leaders. 24 of them were referred to court, while 11 were released under surveillance. In his final message, the suspect wrote: 'I am traveling abroad. Do not harm each other.'
