A major scandal is being investigated by prosecutors in Turkey, where it concerns sports betting and rigged matches.

According to the Turkish media " Mynet ", the prosecutors are investigating a structured criminal group which is accused of money laundering, illegal betting and rigging of football matches.

"Mynet" writes that the criminal group is accused of influencing the manipulation of matches in some Balkan clubs as well as in Georgia through money.

Yes, according to "Mynet", well-known names in Turkey are involved in this scandal, such as the singer Serdat Ortac, the presenter Mehmet Ali Erbil, but especially the former footballer Batuhan Karadeniz.

Ortac and Erbil are being investigated at large, while Karadeniz is said to have fled abroad.

How the scheme worked

Through VIPs, the criminal organization advertised illegal betting sites, allowing many citizens to gamble online. The role of the VIPs was to advertise illegal companies on their social networks, "absorbing" as many customers as possible. VIPs were paid huge sums by criminal groups for advertising on social networks. And according to the Turkish media, it is suspected that the money illegally obtained by criminal groups was re-entered the market to be cleaned by the VIPs themselves, although their role continues to be investigated.

"Mynet" points out that the advertising of these companies online by famous people is done against extremely high payments, up to 1 million dollars for a certain number of posts about them. It is expected that in the following days more details will emerge about these groups and how they organized illegal betting or how far their influence has extended in Turkey and other Balkan countries.

The inclusion of Albanian and Balkan clubs in betting

According to "Mynet", the betting scheme also includes clubs from Albania, North Macedonia and Georgia.

In the article of "Mynet" it is emphasized that the criminal organization managed to buy teams in Albania and rig matches so that they win as much as possible and the bettors always lose.
