Two men have been arrested and charged following a complex investigation into high value fraud.

Detectives from Police Scotland’s economic crime and financial investigation unit received 52 reports of fraudulent will and power of attorney services being offered between 2019 and 2024.

This was traced back to a company based in Glasgow.

A 55-year-old man was arrested and charged in connection with fraud and offences under the Companies Act.

A 61-year-old man was arrested and charged in connection with fraud.

Both appeared at Glasgow Sheriff Court this week.

Detective inspector Jonathan Atkin said: “This was an extensive and complex investigation involving a high number of reports to police. I’d like to thank everyone who came forward with information.

“Anyone who believes they have been a victim of fraud is encourage to report this to us and we will fully investigate.”
