Albanians in England open "employment center" on TikTok, The Sun:

Albanian criminals are using TikTok to advertise job opportunities that could bring in up to £100,000 a year for individuals who agree to work as drug dealers.

According to a recent article by the British daily "The Sun", the posted advertisements promise large payments, up to £6,000 per month, tax-free, to those willing to distribute cocaine and cannabis in an organized network that stretches from Glasgow to the south of England.

One such example is Albanian Pajtim Oruci, 32, who was arrested after admitting running a cannabis farm in Widnes.

TikTok is becoming a major platform for drug gangs advertising job opportunities delivering cocaine for £200 a day, offering huge rewards to workers willing to engage in criminal activity.

Some posts feature Union Jack-themed messages, highlighting drug distribution and job opportunities for individuals who can work up to 7 days a week, offering free cars and fuel.

In one post, users often use snowflake emojis to symbolize cocaine, while Christmas trees and potted plants are also part of this hidden code, helping dealers remain invisible to authorities.

Police have warned about the use of coded language that criminals use to lure young and vulnerable individuals into this unsafe network.

Albanian gangs are also offering rewards of up to £30,000 for information that can help catch their rivals, using TikTok to increase their influence and recruit new workers.

Another trend is that Albanian criminal groups have created dedicated TikTok accounts that use secret codes and references from Albanian singers.
