European organisation Eurojust conducted a crackdown on a piracy and fraud operation of international scale having to do with TV and film streaming service, IPTV.
More than 5,550 illegal computer servers were compromised in various countries around Europe with the operation turning an estimated profit of close to €11 million.
Locally, the Financial Crimes Investigation Department and Cybercrime Unit of the Malta Police Force seized IPTV setups from an individual following a number of searches, finding 150 devices, 48 Smart Satellite Cards, smartphones and approximately €13,000 in banknotes.
Investigations are currently underway.
