A group of 47 individuals exploited a vulnerability in an electric vehicle charging app, resulting in over 1,100 unpaid charging sessions and a loss of 158,000 lei. The suspects created fraudulent accounts using temporary emails and false identities to initiate charging sessions without payment. They also allegedly sold access to these unpaid charges through WhatsApp, coordinating their activities and payments via money transfer apps. Authorities conducted 30 searches as part of the investigation, which is ongoing to determine the extent of the fraud and the responsibility of each suspect.
