In September 2021, the Israeli cybercrime kingpin Gal Barak was sentenced to four years in prison for investment fraud and money laundering in Austria. German prosecutors, led by Nino Goldberg, also want to charge Gal Barak, see him convicted and sentenced to prison. Barak appealed against the indictment; the case is currently before the European Court of Justice. Barak's former boiler room manager Tal-Jacki Fitelzon has already been indicted. Barak's former partner in crime, Uwe Lenhoff, died in prison last year, but his co-conspirators will be indicted. Barak and Lenhoff allegedly produced more than 200,000 victims in Germany!

In September 2020, the Israeli Gal Barak was to four years in prison for investment fraud and money laundering. The millions of euros seized will be paid out to the victims eventually because the Austrian court is very slow in this regard. Gal Barak should also be charged in Germany but has appealed against it. The case is currently before the European Court of Justice. His co-conspirator, Israeli Tal Jacki Fitelzon, on the other hand, has now been indicted in Germany. He was previously in pre-trial detention.

Today was day #3 of the Vienna Cybercrime Trials in the case of Marina Barak. Last week, her lawyer, Norbert Wess, had announced that his client would not answer any questions. Apparently, the statements of the law enforcement agent, who provided his testimony today, caused her "I am silent" attitude to change. Marina Barak was then again available for questioning by the court and the prosecutor. Today's focus was all about the financial processes, the payment processors, and the money-laundering of the cybercrime organization E&G Bulgaria.

The second day in the trial against Marina Barak (previously Marina Andreeva), the former CFO of the Israeli-Bulgarian cybercrime organization E&G Bulgaria was being held today. The judges continued their questioning. Moreover, her husband, Gal Barak, was also scheduled to testify. He was already sentenced in September 2020 as principal and CEO of E&G Bulgaria to four years in prison and is currently in prison in Austria. In the run-up, Gal Barak had unpacked and accused his former partners and employees like Ilan Tzorya or Boyan Popov.
