Poland’s Central Anti-Corruption Bureau (CBA) has detained three foreigners suspected of massive VAT tax fraud, according to a report.

The three are of Turkish origin. They are suspected to have issued fake invoices for over PLN 160 million (USD 44m, EUR 38m), public broadcaster Polish Radio’s IAR news agency reported.

The alleged scam left the taxman PLN 30 million out of pocket in unpaid VAT, the agency added.

The three people detained operated out of Wólka Kosowska, south-west of Warsaw, IAR reported.
