"Hungarian criminals used fake companies to order early season fruit and vegetables from Spain, the Netherlands, Belgium, France and Italy, which they subsequently failed to pay for, and sold them in Hungary, causing damages of up to Ft 1 billion, MTI reported.

Budapest police identified 12 suspects, of whom nine have already been arrested. The criminals received all their orders after setting up nearly one hundred firms in the names of homeless people and obtaining credit notes from credit insurers with fake documents."
