30 506 internet domain names shut down for intellectual property infringement

Law enforcement #authorities from 18 #EU Member States1 and third parties in a joint investigation with #Europol and the US National Intellectual Property Rights Coordination Centre 2, facilitated by #Eurojust and #INTERPOL, have #seized over 30 506 #domain names that distributed #counterfeit and #pirated items over the internet during operation #IOSX. These included counterfeit #pharmaceuticals and pirated #movies, illegal #television #streaming, #music, #software, #electronics, and other bogus products.

3 arrests and 26 000 luxury products seized

During the investigation, officials arrested 3 suspects, seized 26 000 luxury products (clothes, perfumes), 363 litres of alcoholic beverages, and many hardware devices. They identified and froze more than €150 000 in several bank accounts and online payment platforms.

Europol ’s Intellectual Property Crime Coordinated Coalition (IPC³) supported the investigation on the ground by deploying experts with a mobile office. Europol officers carried out real-time information exchange and cross-checks of the data gathered during the course of the action against Europol’s databases. In addition, #IPC3 experts organised several online investigation techniques training courses in intellectual property infringements in 2019 with law enforcement authorities all over #Europe.
