The European Public Prosecutor’s Office (EPPO), the European Union’s independent prosecutor, has indicted eight individuals on charges related to a value-added tax (VAT) fraud scheme responsible for about €80 million in damages. The fraud is said to have been perpetrated by trading face masks and high-end vehicles via a complex network that included shell companies in multiple countries, including Czechia, Poland, and Germany.
