Uberaba/MG. The Federal Police launched this fifth day (12/19) at Operação Chave Digital, with the objective of investigating an electronic banking fraud scheme carried out by a criminal group that, between August and September 2021, illegally accessed digital accounts of third parties linked to Caixa Econômica Federal.
The investigation will reveal that the suspects will use an internet connection registered in the name of a person involved to invade digital accounts and make fraudulent ticket payments. The transactions were carried out by means of digital accounts, with the intention of moving values obtained illicitly.
These frauds aim to hinder the tracking of financial resources and hide their origin, configuring crimes of theft through fraud.
A data analysis conducted by the investigative team was crucial to identifying the group’s identity and basing the legal proceedings that would result in the operation.
During the execution of two errands, one of the two investigated was arrested in flagrante after deliberately damaging his cell phone and a data weapon device. The suspect will respond to crimes of document suppression and procedural fraud.
The Federal Police reinforces its commitment not to combat cybercrimes, guaranteeing the protection of the banking system and the patrimony of Brazilian cities.
