A major operation is underway by the Financial Crimes Unit in areas of Attica to dismantle a criminal organization that is alleged to have been defrauding e-EFKA through companies opened in the name of “front men”.
According to Proto Thema, the presenter and president of LAOS Filippos Kampouris and his wife are alleged to be leading members of the organization, and they are among those arrested.
According to the information so far, the organization is alleged to have been operating since 2021. Its members opened companies using “front men”, without subsequently paying the social security contributions they owed to e-EFKA.
When the debts accumulated, the companies were closed and the debts remained unpaid. The total damage to the insurance body is estimated to exceed 1.5 million euros.
So far, eight people have been arrested, including accountants, businesspeople, and “front men”.
The investigations are continuing.
