The first virtual money case in Fujian has been cracked, illegally trapping 110,000 USDT and profiting 340,000 yuan.
The first case in Fujian Province involving Virtual Money has recently been successfully solved. The case involves the crime of illegally obtaining data from computer information systems, and two individuals involved have been dealt with according to the law.
The case began in September 2019, and after more than four months of investigation and evidence collection by the Cybersecurity Unit of the Xiuyu Branch of the Putian Public Security Bureau, the main suspect, Xu Mouhang, was successfully captured. Xu Mouhang was immediately placed under criminal detention and was prosecuted by the prosecution in February this year. Another accomplice, Xu Moubin, chose to flee after the incident but ultimately surrendered to the police on March 31 of this year.
According to the case handlers, Xu Mouhang is a 27-year-old man from Putian, with a high school education and no fixed occupation. In March last year, he obtained a download link for a certain Virtual Money trading platform through social media and registered an account using his identity information. During the trading process, Xu Mouhang discovered a management loophole in the system and immediately took illegal measures to massively withdraw USDT (a type of Virtual Money) from the platform.
In order to obtain more illegal profits, Xu Mouhang not only registered multiple accounts by purchasing other people's identity information online to expand the scope of fraud, but also informed Xu Moubin of this method. The two reached an agreement to use Xu Moubin's identity to register accounts and continue to illegally defraud USDT on the platform, agreeing to share the proceeds.
According to the investigation, Xu Mouhang entered the platform multiple times and illegally obtained over 110,000 USDT. Subsequently, he sold these virtual money and illegally profited over 260,000 yuan. Xu Moubin, on the other hand, illegally profited over 80,000 yuan from this.
The successful resolution of this case marks an important progress for Fujian Province in combating crimes related to Virtual Money, and it also provides valuable experience for the handling of similar cases in the future.
