The service is investigating eight people from Tenerife and three from Salamanca. The suspects are aged 19 to 45. The criminals created fake websites imitating legal rental companies. Victims paid deposits, packages, or reservation fees. Payments were mainly made by bank transfer or via Bizum. The apartments were not available.
The investigation is led by the cybercrime team from Playa de Las Américas. Bank accounts and contact details were identified. Some criminals used stolen identities of other people.
This means: Verify payments and contacts when buying a rental online. Do not transfer money to unverified accounts.
