The Israeli energy company Dor Alon, controlled by businessman Moti Ben-Moshe, is facing significant embarrassment following a report of widespread embezzlement by its employees. The company disclosed to the stock exchange suspicions of a large-scale fraud involving fuel theft from multiple service stations, primarily in the Sharon and Shfela regions, over the past two years.
Initial estimates suggest the scheme has resulted in the theft of approximately 40 million shekels. In response to the allegations, Dor Alon has launched an internal investigation, hiring a private detective agency, and has filed a formal complaint with the Israel Police. The company is also reviewing its past financial reports for necessary adjustments.
Dor Alon has assured the public that the alleged theft occurred entirely within the company's internal systems and will not affect customer charges or payments. They also stated that they possess an insurance policy against fraud and embezzlement, which is expected to significantly mitigate the actual financial impact on the company's net profit. The company is taking swift action to address the situation internally.
