Criminals Intercept Samsung Delivery Loaded with Galaxy Z Fold 7, Z Flip 7 and Other Devices. Stolen Truck Was in the United Kingdom and the Cargo Was Valued at More Than R$ 59 Million.
A truck was stolen while carrying thousands of Samsung devices last weekend in the United Kingdom. The cargo, valued at around US$ 10.6 million (approximately R$ 59 million), contained units of the newly launched Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7, in addition to other premium products from the brand.
According to information released by sources linked to the investigation, the vehicle had left Heathrow Airport bound for a company warehouse.
