S.K. (65) and B. V. (74) from Smederevska Palanka were arrested for serious fraud, which they allegedly committed between 2021 and 2023.
They are suspected of contacting multiple victims from Serbia and abroad through social networks and misleading them into believing they could claim an inheritance of movable and immovable property from alleged deceased relatives.
After establishing contact, they allegedly offered assistance and mediation in the inheritance process, for which they requested and received monetary payments for alleged legal and other expenses.
Detailed operational checks revealed that B. V. has 36 current accounts in 13 banks, and S. K. has seven current accounts in three banks in Serbia.
