A man who allegedly conned people around the world out of more than $10 million has been arrested after a two-year Interpol investigation. Ali Mohamed Kdoud, 39, was arrested at Larnaca Airport in Cyprus as he was trying to flee.
Kdoud is charged with having defrauded internet users through common scamming techniques. One such method is to send out emails telling people they have won a lottery. The victims are persuaded into disclosing personal information and bank account details for the “prize money” to be deposited, often paying token amounts as lottery fees. The details are then used to empty their bank accounts.
