Romanian manele singer Adi de la Vâlcea has fallen victim to a sophisticated network accused of importing luxury cars into Romania using forged documents from Spain. The artist reported the loss of his 2021 Land Rover, a Chevrolet Corvette he received in a trade, and an additional 10,000 euros in cash.
