Deep Tide TechFlow News, April 4th: The People's Court of Qinzhou District, Tianshui City, Gansu Province recently heard a criminal case involving virtual currency and cash withdrawal assistance. The defendant, through a part-time "high-paying courier" job, knowingly involved in scam proceeds, made multiple cash withdrawals totaling over 390k yuan within 7 days in blind spots of surveillance, and exchanged the funds for virtual currency to transfer to upstream operators, profiting 21.5k yuan. The court determined that he committed the crime of concealing and disguising criminal proceeds, and sentenced him to 2 years and 4 months in prison, with a fine of 10k yuan, and ordered the confiscation of illegal gains.

The judge warned that offline cash withdrawals have become a key link in "laundering" telecommunication scam proceeds. "Courier withdrawals" and "high-paying daily settlements" are often part of the scam chain. The public should be vigilant against behaviors such as accepting cash on behalf of others, transferring money, and assisting in fund transfers to avoid becoming accomplices in crime.
