The two are accused of swindling international companies out of some 15 million euros ($17,530,650).

The suspects' extradition was the result of a year-and-a-half-long investigation by the Tel Aviv District Police's Fraud Unit, in coordination with Norwegian authorities.

The suspects allegedly posed as CEOs of international companies and withdrew funds from bank accounts they had demanded to transfer money to.
