European police have dismantled a major cybercrime network, dubbed Operation SIMCARTEL, which created nearly 50 million fake online accounts for fraudulent activities. The operation led to the arrest of seven individuals and the seizure of numerous SIM boxes and servers, highlighting the extensive use of these accounts for scams, phishing attacks, and other cybercrimes across multiple countries. Financial losses attributed to the network are significant, with millions reported in Austria and Latvia alone.
