According to Beijing Business Today, the Ministry of Public Security reported at a press conference on January 10 that over 53,000 Chinese suspects involved in telecom fraud from northern Myanmar have been arrested, successfully dismantling the "four major families" crime groups in northern Myanmar.
The Ministry pointed out that despite significant achievements in combating crime, the situation remains severe. Fraud groups are continuously upgrading their criminal tools using new technologies such as blockchain, virtual currency, and AI intelligence. These organizations are tightly structured and engage in illegal activities such as app development, traffic promotion, and money laundering through cross-border collaboration.
Fraudsters tailor their scams to different age groups, professions, and educational backgrounds, resulting in a wide range of victims. Although the fraud parks near the Chinese border in northern Myanmar have been cleared, there are still many fraud dens abroad disguised as "technology parks" and "development zones."

Russia "begins selling" 1,032 bitcoins seized in the Infraud hacker organization case
According to Cryptonews, Russia has begun selling the bitcoins seized during its investigation of the Infraud hacker organization in 2023. This move indicates that Moscow aims to exchange over 1,000 bitcoins for fiat currency. The Russian state news agency TASS confirmed this development, stating that Moscow will first sell the nearly $10 million worth of bitcoins seized from former investigator Marat Tambiev.
Last year, Tambiev was convicted of accepting bribes from the hacker organization. Prosecutors found hundreds of bitcoins on his computer and storage devices. The former investigator was convicted of accepting 1,032.1 bitcoins and sentenced to 16 years in prison. However, the efforts of the bailiffs to liquidate all 1,032.1 bitcoins became complicated due to legal obstacles. Tambiev appears to have divided these bitcoins into several smaller amounts. This means the bailiffs must submit separate court rulings to allow Moscow to access these bitcoins. However, the bailiffs have successfully persuaded the court to allow them to sell the first batch of bitcoins. They stated that Tambiev stored these bitcoins in a Ledger Nano X hardware wallet.
