Anhui police in China have cracked down on a money laundering gang that used virtual currency trading platforms to cheat points, involving tens of millions of yuan
According to BlockBeats, on September 5th, according to the China Police Network, the Public Security Bureau of Wuhe County, Anhui Province, has recently made precise judgments and taken rapid actions, successfully cutting off a chain that used virtual currency trading platforms as cover but actually engaged in money laundering activities. Three suspects have finally been brought to justice. The running group takes advantage of the public's vague understanding of virtual currency investment, using virtual currency trading platforms as a cover to engage in seemingly legitimate investment speculation, but in fact engages in illegal running and money laundering activities. The gang involved amounts to tens of millions of yuan, posing an incalculable threat to financial order and social security. The running score gang manipulates highly concealed running score software, uses bank accounts or third-party payment platforms, and through fictitious transactions, decentralized transfers, and other means, "whitewashes" illegally obtained funds to make them appear as legitimate income. Virtual currency trading platforms have opened up a money laundering shortcut for fraud gangs, allowing huge amounts of stolen money to quickly disperse and transfer in the fog of the digital world, ultimately disappearing without a trace. With keen insight and solid professional skills, the police conducted in-depth analysis of the clues collected in the early stage, gradually uncovering the mysterious veil of this money laundering gang. Through meticulous tracking and investigation, the police not only obtained evidence of the suspect's crime, but also successfully located their whereabouts. In the face of conclusive evidence, three suspect confessed to their criminal acts. At present, three suspect have been taken compulsory measures according to law.
