Europol accepts fraud on air tickets

Europol has taken great action against airline fraud.

Europol reported Tuesday that in recent days 84 airlines, 64 countries and eight travel agencies have collapsed to fight fraud. This resulted in actions at 230 airports spread throughout the world.

Some of the arrested travelers also tried to smuggle heroin from South America to Africa and Europe. It was about people who flew up and down regularly with tickets bought by fraud.
