Dutch media have uncovered a complicated case involving a Moroccan family accused of scamming Dutch citizens. 

According to reports, a gang of six people from a Moroccan family had been defrauding Dutch residents for years, posing as workers offering sewer cleaning services.

The gang, based in Almere, received large sums of money, often in the thousands of euros, for minor or non-existent work.

 Over the years, they amassed millions of euros through fraud and money laundering, which they reportedly transferred to Morocco, according to Dutch judicial authorities.

The prosecution is seeking prison sentences of up to four years for the six suspects involved, as reported by the newspaper De Telegraaf

The group, led by “Nourdine T,” manipulated invoices related to plumbing and sewer work to inflate prices and deceive customers.

Authorities have identified Nourdine, his brothers Mourad and Redouane, as well as their cousins Mohamed and Walid, with the sixth suspect being Monica K., Nourdine’s wife. 

The authorities stated that the couple is now fleeing to Morocco with a significant sum of money.

The Dutch Ministry of Justice estimates that the gang earned at least 35 million euros over three years, transferring the funds to Morocco via private jets.

The prosecution is demanding prison sentences of four years for Nourdine and Monica, two years for Mourad, three years for Redouane, and two years for the cousins.
