Sichuan Nanchong police dismantled a virtual currency money laundering gang, 5 people were criminally detained

The Public Security Bureau of Shunqing District, Nanchong City, Sichuan Province successfully dismantled a "score-running" gang that used virtual currency for money laundering, arresting 5 criminal suspects including Wang. It is reported that Wang and others discovered "high-paying job" advertisements online and formed a professional "team" to engage in illegal fund transfer activities.

The gang connected with overseas fraud, gambling, and other black market groups through overseas encrypted chat software, recruiting members to specifically target socially idle individuals to handle bank cards, thus constructing a complete criminal chain. According to the police handling the case, this criminal group recruited "card farmers" with the bait of "high commissions," providing card numbers to overseas clients. After the funds were transferred in, they were instructed to split and transfer to designated accounts. Once the "score running" was completed, the client settled the "reward" through virtual currency. Currently, the 5 criminal suspects have been criminally detained according to the law, and the case is under further investigation. The police remind that renting, lending, or selling bank cards and payment accounts are all suspected of illegal crimes.
