NewzFour individuals were arrested by the Buenos Aires Provincial Police following an investigation into a major fraud scheme at a gas station. The suspects are accused of replacing a point-of-sale (Posnet) terminal to illicitly divert funds, resulting in the theft of more than 30 million pesos, with reports indicating the total amount reached 38 million pesos.
The operation was conducted by the Superintendency of Investigations of Complex Crimes and Organized Crime. Authorities dismantled the criminal group after determining that the tampered payment device allowed the suspects to intercept transactions. The investigation remains ongoing as officials process the evidence recovered during the arrests.
