Sweden has stopped using cash – and fraudsters are having a field day
MSN
In one high-stakes heist in the 1990s, a Swedish gang put a bomb in the locker of Stockholm’s main train station as a decoy while they raided a bank on the other side of the city.
This was just one of 10 outrageous heists carried out by a group known as the “Military Gang” in Sweden. Scandi Noirs don’t have to look very far for source material. Stockholm had a per capita gun-murder rate of nearly 30 times that of London, as of 2022, and the Swedish police reported that there were 238,000 frauds reported in 2023.
