The raids were conducted in Bulgaria, Austria, Germany, Greece, Ireland, Spain, Italy, the Netherlands, the United Kingdom, Poland, Portugal, Romania, Serbia, Turkiye, France, Croatia, Czechia and the USA. Prop money can be ordered online or legally purchased in prop stores. Counterfeit US dollars and British pounds were also found during the special operation.
