Financial Fraudster Marco Mouly Arrested in Rome Under International Warrant

Mouly, infamous for his role in the 'taxe carbone' fraud, was detained following his November 2024 conviction for organizing his insolvency to evade fines.

Marco Mouly, known as the 'roi de l’arnaque,' was arrested in Rome on March 30, 2025, after evading justice for months.
He was sentenced in absentia in November 2024 to three years in prison for fraudulent insolvency and hiding assets to avoid paying fines.
Mouly fled to Israel earlier in 2025 and was publicly spotted in Tel Aviv before being apprehended in Italy under an international warrant.
His criminal history includes the 'taxe carbone' VAT fraud, one of the largest financial scams in EU history, causing billions in losses.
Mouly's lawyer has called for a fair trial as he faces extradition and further legal proceedings for his numerous financial crimes.
