Overview
- France’s national cybercrime unit, BL2C, arrested Ainis D., 22, at his home in Montataire on March 3 after tracking a social media ticket scam.
- Prosecutors referred him for the opening of a judicial inquiry on fraud, forgery, and money‑laundering charges.
- Investigators estimate roughly 2,000 victims and at least €40,000 in proceeds, and the suspect acknowledged the figures.
- The scheme used TikTok resale accounts to offer PSG match seats, but the tickets were fake and did not grant entry to the stadium.
- Investigators say his brother helped and fled during the arrest, and the search continues as the case remains active.
