A Palermo carabinieri investigation busted a network of illegal transactions in the sale of archaeological treasures on the e-Bay auction website, which traced an exchange from Malta to as far as the USA and Australia.
Operation Archeoweb saw the seizure of 8,853 items and the identification of 25 accused involved in the various web transactions, along with the cooperation of the eBay’s Italian operators.
