E-money for special fraud proceeds Suspected trading under fictitious name Man arrested June 18, 17:52

A 36-year-old man was arrested for buying and selling electronic money that was supposedly deceived by a Thai-based Japanese fraudulent group under the fictitious name, pretending it wasn't criminal proceeds. The Metropolitan Police Department is investigating that money laundering = money laundering of 100 million yen or more was repeated at the request of a special fraud group.

The arrest was Fumihiko Soga (36), whose residence is unknown.

According to the Tokyo Metropolitan Police Department, a Japanese special fraud group caught in Pattaya, Thailand, bought and sold electronic money of 500,000 yen that seems to have been deceived from a woman in Miyagi prefecture in January last year by repeatedly buying and selling under fictitious name, and gained in crime. It is suspected of violating the organized crime punishment law by pretending that it is not money.

Based on the investigations so far, it is believed that Suga was the commander of the money exchange laundering = money laundering and cashing at the request of the special fraud group.

The Metropolitan Police Department is investigating it as having repeatedly laundered more than 150 million yen.

It means keeping quiet about the investigation.

Suga was arrested last month when he was in a high-rise apartment building in Osaka city on suspicion of being involved in another special fraud, but at that time a man in the same room fell to his death and died. It was.
