Another lesson in "all that glitters is not golden sunflower oil".
Police in Adana determined that Sait Y. hoodwinked businessmen in
France and Arab countries out of 150 million TL (about $7.7) with
the promise of selling them sunflower seed oil by touring the prospective
customers around a "sunflower oil production plant" that was nothing
but a sham. (!)
In a raid on the "plant" police apprehended Sait Y. and his son Mehmet
Y., along with 37 other suspects. 50 million TL was seized from the
suspects' bank accounts, as were 7 flats in three cities, a 793.87
square meter plot of land and five vehicles.
It turned out that Sait Y. had opened the sham sunflower oil
production facility in Yüregir, Adana, while his son Mehmet Y, who
has a degree in foreign trade (!), shared pictures of it on social media
and offered inexpensive olive oil. Businessmen lured by the
promotion were toured around the sham "olive oil production plant"
and subsequently taken out to be wined and dined by father and son.
"Nothing up my slippery sleeve..."

"Thank you for being a friend. Now gimme your money!"
In Istanbul, Mina Z. met a man on social media last February and he
invited her to his home in Pendik, Istanbul. However (!), when
Mina Z. arrived at the man's home by taxi she and the taxi driver
were greeted by two armed men who relieved Mina Z. and the driver
of their cellphones and money before fleeing.
Police determined that the culprits were Bartu T. and Şafak A., both
of whom were taken into custody. Under questioning, the suspects
explained that they targeted foreign women on social media on the
pretext of starting a friendship, invited them to their houses and then
robbed them. Both Bartu and Şafak were jailed.
