A man in his 40s from the Borlänge area faces charges for gross fraud after hijacking a company's identity. He ordered goods worth more than 220,000 kronor billed to a road construction firm.
A man in his 40s from the Borlänge area is suspected of carrying out a series of gross frauds by hijacking a company's identity. During an intensive period early this year, he ordered goods worth more than 220,000 kronor, which were invoiced to a road works company. The orders ranged from candy to electronics.
Additional smaller amounts were invoiced to other companies, according to the indictment. Police investigated the case as corporate hijacking, a type of identity theft targeting businesses.
The charges were filed recently in court, as reported by Dala-Demokraten. No further details on the man's response have emerged.
