The European Public Prosecutor's Office has alerted Romania in several cases of fraud, including one with a possible damage of €4.3 million and involving a mafia group in Italy.

The institution headed by Laura Codruta Kovesi has informed the Ministry of European Investments and Projects that there are possible systemic vulnerabilities in Romania in contracts with European funds.

The European Public Prosecutor's Office has reported a high risk of fraud with letters of guarantee issued by fictitious entities or entities that were not authorized to issue such documents.

According to a press release from the Public Prosecutor's Office, a number of public tenders were won on the basis of these false documents and subsequently came under investigation. Letters guaranteed by banks or other companies are mandatory financial instruments for participation in tenders.
