Three fictitious invoices dealers detained, one of them caught red-handed
The agents of the CBA from Łódź have detained three persons dealing with trade in fictitious VAT invoices. The materials collected by the Bureau and the detainees will be transferred to the Prosecutor’s Office.
Three Warsaw entrepreneurs, including one of Ukrainian origin, have been detained by the officers of the Regional Office of the Central Anti-Corruption Bureau in Łódź. The men are suspected of trade in fictitious VAT invoices for different kinds of construction services. From the information collected it appears that the entrepreneurs have made it a permanent practice, aimed at generating costs for entities interested in purchasing them. As it has been determined, the detainees charged commission ranging from 5 to 10 percent of the net value on the invoice. One of the entrepreneurs was detained during the next transaction. He carried fictitious invoices for 900,000 zlotys, as well as a contract guaranteeing subsequent invoices in the total amount of 2 million zlotys.
The agents of the CBA searched the places of residence of the detainees, as well as the headquarters of entities managed by them in order to secure accounting documentation. This is just the beginning of the investigation. The evidence material collected by the CBA and the detainees will be transferred to the Prosecutor’s Office.
