Police around the world arrested 150 suspects involved in buying or selling illegal goods online in one of the largest-ever stings targeting the dark web, Europol said Tuesday.
In the United States alone, police arrested 65 people, while 47 were held in Germany, 24 in Britain, and four each in Italy and the Netherlands, among others.
Law agents also confiscated 26.7 million euros ($31 million) in cash and virtual currencies, as well as 45 guns and 516 pounds of drugs, including 25,000 ecstasy pills.
