Cops seize $150 million in gold bars, cash amid scam ring takedown

A local jewelry store is mixed up in a three-state sting that authorities say was part of a “gold bar scam.” Authorities in three states conducted a series of raids this week to dismantle an organized scam targeting elderly victims. The investigation involved coordinated law enforcement actions in Florida, Georgia, and Texas. The probe centers on a network of scammers who allegedly pose as law enforcement officers to pressure victims into buying gold bars for “safekeeping.” Investigators used digital forensics to track the gold to three different businesses, including a refinery in Altamonte Springs. In Central Florida, the investigation focused on the Orlando Gold Refinery in Altamonte Springs. We're learning more details about the amount of money stolen from victims and the amount of gold seized.
