A criminal gang in Zhejiang was arrested for using digital yuan to cash out more than 200,000 yuan
According to the official account of Zhejiang prosecutors, a criminal gang in Shaoxing City, Zhejiang Province recently used a digital RMB account to illegally cash out more than 200,000 yuan within four days. Several people used shopping and chatting to win over merchants with digital RMB accounts. After the merchants agreed to cash out, they first converted a certain amount of money into virtual currency as a deposit and transferred it to the upper home, and then sent the digital RMB payment code to the upper home. After the fraudulent funds entered the merchant's digital RMB account, the merchant deducted 1% to 1.5% of the handling fee, and then took the corresponding amount of cash. After being prosecuted by the Yuecheng District Procuratorate, the court sentenced Yuan, Zhang and Kou to fixed-term imprisonment ranging from one year and four months to seven months and fined them for concealing and concealing the proceeds of crime.
The prosecutor reminded the general public to strengthen their understanding of the digital yuan, pay attention to protecting personal information, and in case of suspicious situations, please call the police in time to protect their property safety.
