The multi-million euro scam was apparently perpetrated using the phishing technique. The hacker had actually spoofed the identity of the issuer to scam the company.

The Zendal Group is dedicated to biotechnology and is currently preparing to manufacture hundreds of millions of doses of the vaccine against Covid19. The pharmaceutical company filed a complaint with the Civil Guard after discovering the deception. They are now waiting for the results of the investigations of the agents involved who are trying to follow the money trail to find the perpetrators and hopefully recover the money.

The search for the missing money continues…
