In a shocking scam exposed by authorities, two individuals were arrested yesterday for allegedly defrauding people with a bizarre promise: double your money by turning ordinary paper into real currency.
The arrests were made following a tip-off that led the General Department of Anti-Corruption, Economic, and Electronic Security, in collaboration with the Capital Governorate Police Directorate, to launch an immediate investigation. The suspects were swiftly identified and apprehended.
Authorities acted quickly to refer the case to the Public Prosecution, ensuring the fraudsters would face legal consequences.
In a statement, the General Department of Anti-Corruption, Economic, and Electronic Security urged both citizens and residents to remain vigilant. They advised the public to steer clear of such deceptive individuals and to report any suspicious activity to the Department of Combating Economic Crimes at the hotline 992.
