Some 2,350 bank accounts were seized as part of Interpol&#8217;s Operation HAECHI-II.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Far from the common notion of online fraud as a relatively low-level and low stakes type of criminality, the results of Operation HAECHI-II show that transnational organized crime groups have been using the Internet to extract millions from their victims before funneling the illicit cash to bank accounts across the globe,&#8221; the international criminal police organisation said.<\/p>\n<p>The operation <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/this-cybersecurity-threat-costs-business-millions-and-its-the-one-they-often-forget-about\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">specifically targeted BEC, or email fraud<\/a>, which involves tricking staff into wiring large sums to supposed suppliers or contractors, often by using emails that appear to be sent by someone more senior in the organisation.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The FBI estimated that BEC scams cost <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/fbi-one-type-of-scam-is-costing-business-the-most\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">US businesses $1.8 billion in 2020<\/a>, dwarfing the reported $29 million in losses attributed to ransomware. The scammers have also taken a leaf from the ransomware business by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/palo-alto-warns-of-bec-as-a-service-finds-average-wire-fraud-attempted-is-567000-with-peak-of-6-million\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">moving to a services-based model<\/a> where components are rented out to different parties. &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Interpol highlighted a case in Colombia where a textiles company lost more than $8 million to a BEC scam.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;The perpetrators impersonated the legal representative of the company, giving the order to transfer more than $16 million to two Chinese bank accounts. Half of the money was transferred before the company uncovered the fraud and alerted the Colombian judicial authorities, which in turn quickly contacted Interpol&#8217;s financial crime unit through their National Central Bureau in Bogota,&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.interpol.int\/en\/News-and-Events\/News\/2021\/More-than-1-000-arrests-and-USD-27-million-intercepted-in-massive-financial-crime-crackdown\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" data-component=\"externalLink\">Interpol said<\/a>.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<section class=\"sharethrough-top placeholder\"> <\/section>\n<p>To freeze the transferred funds, Interpol worked with its bureaus in Beijing, Bogota and Hong Kong.&nbsp; &nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Intercepting the illicit proceeds of online financial crimes before they disappear into the pockets of money mules is a race against time, and we have worked closely with the Attorney General&#8217;s Office to move as decisively as possible,&#8221; said General Jorge Luis Vargas Valencia, Director General of the Colombian National Police.<\/p>\n<p>BEC is an international banking problem that is difficult for law enforcement to address across jurisdictions. The FBI set up the IC3&#8217;s Recovery Asset Team (RAT) in February 2018 to handle communications between banks and FBI field offices to freeze funds in cases where victims transferred funds to domestic accounts. However, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ic3.gov\/Media\/PDF\/AnnualReport\/2020_IC3Report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" data-component=\"externalLink\">IC3 has worked with US consulates in foreign territories<\/a>, such as Hong Kong, to freeze multimillion-dollar transfers headed to bank accounts in China.<\/p>\n<p>Interpol notes that in another case, a company in Slovenia transferred $800,000 to money mule accounts in China. The transfer was stopped after Slovenian Criminal Police contacted Interpol and connected with peers at Interpol in Beijing.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Operation HAECHI-II involved law enforcement from Angola, Brunei, Cambodia, Colombia, China, India, Indonesia, Ireland, Japan, Korea (Rep. of), Laos, Malaysia, Maldives, Philippines, Romania, Singapore, Slovenia, Spain, Thailand, and Vietnam.<\/p>\n<p> READ
