14 DAY TRIAL // The Balkan country will be aided by a special FBI agent in their battles against cybercriminals, according to an announcement made during a US visit of the Bulgarian Interior Minister.
Local news agency Novinite claims that the country's Main Directorate for Fighting Organized Crime (GDBOP) will be assisted by the agent in cases that involve things such as identity theft and financial fraud.
