According to a statement from Police Headquarters, a 57-year-old man in the town of Alicante was arrested by National Police officers on suspicion of opening an account in his ex-partner’s name on a popular online e-commerce platform and making 8,700 euros in purchases without paying for them.

After a woman complained that she had been duped by a reputable online e-commerce platform after receiving many letters demanding payment for multiple orders that totalled over 8,700 euros, the inquiry got underway.

The victim said that because she had not made any purchases or registered for an account on the platform, she was unable to identify these orders as her own.

Investigators were able to identify the suspected fraudster—a man the victim had previously had a romantic relationship with—after examining all of the victim’s submitted papers and gathering a number of pertinent pieces of information.

According to the same sources, the agents’ investigations revealed that the suspect, who is of Spanish descent, created an account using his ex-partner’s personal information, provided false bank information, and designated his own house as the delivery address for the shipments.

All of the purchases would have been done by the same individual because the investigators were positive that the user and creator of the account on the popular platform was the subject of the inquiry. After being recognised, he was found and taken into custody on suspicion of fraud and document fabrication.
