Launched today: first episode of The Europol Podcast

Have you ever wanted to go behind the scenes on a real police operation? Europol has launched a brand new podcast and we invite you to join us for fascinating discussions on complex, cross-border operations involving dangerous criminals. Contributors from both Europol and law enforcement around the world talk about some of the most high-profile operations that Europol has been involved in and explain the intricacies of modern police work. These discussions will showcase the variety of international operations that Europol is involved in and the ongoing fight against serious and organised crime.

The podcast will focus on a number of crime areas, from cybercrime, to organised crime, to financial crime and more. It will delve into the complexities of destructive malwares like REvil and EMOTET, as well as Europol’s work in dismantling the child abuse forum, Boystown. We look at organised crime and speak to police officers from as far apart as San Diego to Stockholm who collaborated on one of Europol’s most successful operations against encrypted communications, Operation Greenlight. We also look at drugs trafficking from South America to Europe and the ways that Europol helps coordinate cross-border activities between multiple countries. We also examine the notorious Vitae Ponzi scheme and the ways that criminals use call centres to swindle innocent people.
