43 thousand fake invoices worth nearly 900 million zlotys. Over 100 people facing charges
The Regional Prosecutor's Office in Warsaw has charged four members of a criminal group involved in VAT fraud from 2018 to 2022. Led by Zbigniew Adam B., the group created and circulated false invoices, resulting in a tax loss of over 138 million PLN. The investigation revealed an international network, including Polish, Ukrainian, Vietnamese, and Indian nationals, who imported goods using fictitious companies. They managed over 150 entities, often with 'front' individuals in leadership roles. The total number of fraudulent invoices exceeded 43,000, with a value nearing 900 million PLN, and assets worth over 80 million PLN have been secured.
