Bulgarian investigators have participated in an international operation aimed at combating computer crimes that caused 46 million US dollars in damage. More than 300 people from 27 countries had become victims of the criminals.
The news was announced at a briefing by the investigation service. The subject of the investigation was the criminal network NetWalker, which had been operating since March 2020.
