Israeli nabbed at airport for allegedly defrauding NIS 17m

Police arrest a 33-year-old Israeli at Ben Gurion Airport on suspicion of conning NIS 17 million (approx. $4.5 million) from investors for a new app, by presenting them with false information about the popularity of the product.

The unidentified man, from Kadima in central Israel, is apprehended at the airport as he returns to the country after six months abroad.
