Police make fourth arrest in London over alleged crypto-scam

Metropolitan Police have made a fourth arrest in connection with an investigation into an alleged £15 million crypto-currency scam in which two Charedi men have previously been arrested.

A 30-year-old man was arrested in Tottenham on Wednesday as part of Operation Galafarm, which has been launched by the Met’s Economic Crime Command.

It is alleged that £15million has been laundered through shell companies in a scheme targeting members of the public.

In May two men aged 24 and 36 were arrested after searches of premises in Stamford Hill.
