Moroccan police have dismantled a criminal network involved in telephone scams and identity theft, following a coordinated operation between the cities of Guercif and Laâyoune. Authorities arrested five individuals, aged between 32 and 44, who are suspected of orchestrating the fraud scheme.
The suspects are accused of impersonating bank employees and other officials to deceive victims into revealing personal and financial information. The network operated across different regions of Morocco, using the stolen identities to carry out fraudulent transactions.
Investigations are ongoing to determine the full extent of the network's activities and identify potential victims. The suspects remain in custody pending further judicial proceedings.
