October 14, 2019 Over 100 million tax evasion realized through false invoices. This is what the men of the Currency Police Unit of the Guardia di Finanza found out as part of an investigation coordinated by the Rome Public Prosecutor. Overall, 21 precautionary measures were issued while assets were seized, between the provinces of Rome and Latina, worth around 20 million.

The investigations made it possible to discover a criminal association that carried out systematic tax evasions for over 100 million euros and money laundering and self-laundering of illegal proceeds for over 55 million euros. The organization had already been hit at the end of 2017, when four Roman entrepreneurs considered the originators of the complex system of fraud were arrested, again on the orders of the Capitoline magistrate.

The investigations then made it possible to identify other subjects, active within the criminal structure, who were assigned well-defined tasks, such as the establishment of '' paper mills '' companies, the preparation of false invoices and the laundering of the money paid against the payment of the tax documents issued.

The role of a Rome accountant who found new customers was also significant. The man who knew, for professional reasons, the financial conditions of his clients, skillfully directed them to use the services of the organization. End customers, to whom most of the money was then withdrawn in the form of cash, could thus have the availability of money to use without running the risk of the transactions being "traced" through official channels.
