OLAF Busts Counterfeit Truck Parts Ring in Portugal
The European Anti-Fraud Office (OLAF) has assisted Portuguese authorities in dismantling a trade in counterfeit truck parts, seizing goods worth hundreds of thousands of euros. OLAF stated that these counterfeit components posed a serious safety risk to road users across the EU. The operation targeted the import of fake goods into the single market, protecting both consumers and legitimate businesses. National authorities will now proceed with legal action against the individuals involved.
