A Chinese man committed a fraud never seen before in Hungary, arrested in "record time".

A man was arrested for sending phishing SMS disguised as police notifications using a fake mobile base station from a moving vehicle. The suspect, a Chinese national, is accused of violating information systems and data related to public interest operations. The investigation began on July 22 in Budapest, leading to the identification of the perpetrator in Pécs the same day. Over 88,000 network connections were recorded to the fake station, affecting nine victims with damages nearing five million HUF. Authorities are examining the suspect's foreign connections and have contacted international organizations for further investigation. Experts warn that police never send traffic violation alerts via SMS or email and advise victims to notify their banks first.
