"Big Brother No. 1" generously rewarded more than 50 million yuan in the live broadcast and formed a friendship with the anchor. However, these tips do not come from the true generosity of the "local tyrants", but hide the criminal intention of money laundering. As a result, the Pudong New Area Procuratorate lifted the veil on the use of online live streaming to reward money laundering crimes.
In the past two years, the people involved in the case have received more than 50 million yuan in stolen money through live broadcasts. After a series of transfers and withdrawals, the money was eventually returned to the suspects in fundraising fraud.
Not only that, the prosecutor also found that there is a gray area of "reward return" on the live broadcast platform, which provides convenient conditions for money laundering crimes. This kind of "tipping cashback" ecology makes tipping a legalized channel for criminals to launder money.
In order to curb this illegal behavior, the Pudong New Area Procuratorate put forward suggestions to the platforms involved in the case: prohibit the return of tips to the popular behavior, implement a real-name authentication system for tipping, and strengthen the supervision of high-value tips and large-value purchases. In addition, anchors and platforms are also required to settle earnings through real-name accounts, so that the regulatory authorities can track the flow of funds.
In the country's first case of using online live streaming to reward money laundering, the procuratorate initiated a public prosecution and dealt with the people involved accordingly, aiming to purify the environment of the live broadcast platform and prevent the occurrence of money laundering. The ** of this case also reminds people to be vigilant against the phenomenon of gray transactions on live broadcast platforms, and calls for strengthening the supervision and regulation of tipping behavior to ensure a fair and healthy live broadcast environment.
