Supreme Inspection: The current high incidence of telecommunications network fraud, virtual currency "money laundering" has become the mainstream method

According to the Securities Times, Du Xueyi, director of the Economic Crime Procuratorate of the Supreme People's Procuratorate, said during an interview with the head of the Supreme People's Procuratorate on February 13 that the current telecommunications network fraud crime is high and frequent, and the situation is still severe and complicated. First, fraud groups are cross-border and monopolized. Criminals open "industrial parks" and "science and technology parks" overseas, implement management and control by providing guarantees, armed protection, etc., and extract or charge to obtain stolen money, forming large-scale criminal organizations. Second, fraud methods are diverse and compound, "romance scam + false investment" "combination of gambling and fraud" and "combination of fraud and extortion" are more confusing, resulting in serious violent crimes such as intentional injury. The third is that the black crime module is becoming increasingly stable, and the criminal tool software is simple and easy to use, resulting in a wider range of people being adsorbed into criminal activities. Fourth, the funding channels are intertwined and hidden, and virtual currency "money laundering" has become the mainstream method, helping criminals transfer fraudulent funds "in small amounts", which is difficult to trace back.
