Israeli police have arrested a couple suspected of posing as insurance representatives and defrauding clients, according to a statement released on Tuesday. The suspects allegedly demanded fees ranging from NIS 2,000 to NIS 5,000, and in some cases up to NIS 10,000, for their services.
The arrests were made following an investigation by the Israel Police's fraud unit. The couple, whose names have not been released, are believed to have targeted individuals seeking insurance policies, offering assistance in exchange for payment.
Police say the suspects presented themselves as legitimate insurance agents, but were not authorized to sell insurance. The investigation is ongoing, and authorities are urging anyone who may have been approached by the couple to come forward.
The couple is expected to appear in court later this week. The exact number of alleged victims has not been disclosed.
