The Supreme People's Procuratorate: Currently, telecommunications and Internet fraud crimes are rampant, and virtual currency "money laundering" has become the mainstream method
2025-02-13 03:15

Odaily News Du Xueyi, director of the Economic Crime Procuratorate of the Supreme People's Procuratorate, said at an interview event with the director of the Supreme People's Procuratorate on February 13 that telecommunications and Internet fraud crimes are currently prevalent and the situation remains severe and complex.

First, the fraud gangs are cross-border and monopolistic. Criminals set up "industrial parks" and "science and technology parks" abroad, implement management and control by providing security and armed shelter, and obtain stolen money by taking commissions or charging fees, thus forming large-scale criminal organizations.

Second, the means of fraud are diverse and complex. "Pig killing + false investment", "gambling and fraud combination", "extortion combination" are more confusing, and have led to serious violent crimes such as intentional injury.

Third, the modules of black industry crimes are becoming more stable, and the criminal tool software is simple and easy to use, which leads to a wider range of people being attracted to criminal activities. Fourth, the channels of funds are intertwined and hidden, and virtual currency "money laundering" has become the mainstream method, helping criminals to transfer fraudulent funds in "small amounts and multiple transactions", which is difficult to trace back.
