🚨 Czech authorities, working with Slovenian counterparts, have carried out a major operation into suspected match manipulation in professional and youth football. Players, referees and officials are among those suspected of attempting to influence match outcomes for financial gain. Raids across multiple locations have led to the seizure of devices and key evidence. INTERPOL’s Match-Fixing Task Force deployed officers to both countries by providing intelligence, analytical support and cross-border coordination, helping uncover links to wider criminal networks. The investigation remains ongoing, with further developments expected as evidence is analysed.

@UNODC @ukhomeoffice From dialogue to action. At the #GlobalFraudSummit, @UNODC and @INTERPOL_HQ brought together global partners to strengthen cooperation against organized fraud. Here's the recap ⬇️

@UNODC @ukhomeoffice The #GlobalFraudSummit has closed with calls for stronger global cooperation to tackle what is one of the fastest-growing types of crime, affecting millions of individuals and businesses around the world. Read more ➡️ 🔗 interpol.int/News-and-Event…

The #GlobalFraudSummit continues today in Vienna, looking beyond the financial impact of fraud to explore stronger collaboration mechanisms, faster responses, and the devastating toll it has on victims.

Our member countries have been unequivocal: fraud has become one of INTERPOL’s top operational priorities. For me, the one message we have to take away from this Global Fraud Summit is not just that we need to act. But that we can act. Right away. If we look at the Call to Action, many of the recommended steps can happen straight away. They don’t need a new platform for us to deliver immediate, impactful results. INTERPOL provides a trusted, neutral platform for 196 member countries, and trusted partners like the UNODC and the European Commission, to share intelligence to fully understand the threat, and to work together to combat it. We can start with a default operational decision that fraud is a cross-border threat. From today. We can start sharing more intelligence to INTERPOL’s secure environment to further enhance our criminal assessments. Straight away. We can rely on INTERPOL’s established communications networks to reach out to partner agencies and to check our data holdings. Right now. We have the capabilities, the tools and the expertise. What we need is the energy and commitment to fully use them.

@UNODC @RTHondavehanson @EUHomeAffairs @matildaalomatu @magnusbrunner With dozens of side and special events, the #GlobalFraudSummit is a unique platform for public-private sector exchanges.

Setting the stage for strategic discussions at the #GlobalFraudSummit Leaders from @EUHomeAffairs, France, Ghana, United Kingdom, @INTERPOL_HQ and @UNODC examine the evolving global fraud landscape, share priorities and responses to fraud, exchange experiences, and explore opportunities for coordinated, evidence-based action.
