A Cypriot lost a lot of money after falling for an online scam from a fake job ad. On March 12, he replied to the ad and downloaded an app for a video interview.
The outcome? €107,000 in cryptocurrencies vanished from his digital wallets. Police are looking into whether malware was installed through the app that caused the theft. The Financial Crime Investigation Unit of the Nicosia CID is on the case, warning everyone to be very careful with online job offers.
