- Italian authorities seized assets worth millions in a VAT fraud investigation involving luxury vehicles. The fraud involved importing over 1,700 vehicles from Germany to Italy without paying VAT. Assets seized include luxury cars, bank accounts, real estate, and designer items. The investigation was initiated after a consumer reported issues with registering a German car. All suspects are presumed innocent until proven guilty.
