From being a back-office launderer hiding behind the scenes to being a front-line field driver, he showed up in person to collect money, only to be treated as cannon fodder. A woman surnamed Huang was arrested and sentenced to one year and two months by the Tainan District Court for aggravated fraud.

In April last year, Huang Nu gave her Yushan Bank account to the fraud group as the head account. The members of the group used the tactic of "guaranteed profit from selling goods on behalf of others" to trick the three victims into remittances. Huang Nu followed the instructions behind the scenes and used all the tens of thousands of dollars of stolen money transferred into the account to purchase virtual currencies, and then transferred them to the group's designated electronic wallet, thereby concealing the flow of funds.

Not long after the online money laundering, Huang Nv joined another fraud group in May last year and worked as a driver in the field. The group pretended to make investment profits to lure the man named Zeng to meet him in person. Huang Nv followed the instructions and printed forged investment company withdrawal receipts and identification cards, and personally She went to the scene and pretended to be a specialist to collect NT$100,000 in cash from Zeng Nan, but received only NT$8,000 for running errands. However, she showed up and asked the victim to write down her appearance. Zeng Nan was shocked to find out that she had been deceived and reported the crime. The police followed the lead and successfully arrested her and sent her to justice.

Ms. Huang confessed to the crime during the police inquiry, investigation and trial. She confessed that she followed orders and took the initiative to return the 8,000 yuan in criminal proceeds she earned as a driver. Although she reached mediation with some victims and compensated part of the amount, due to personal financial difficulties, she was no longer able to continue to pay the mediation money.

The Tainan District Court pointed out that Huang first provided an account to buy coins to launder money, and then joined the group to collect money with forged documents, which encouraged the rampant fraud and caused losses to the victims. The judge considered her confession, restitution of criminal proceeds, and reconciliation with some victims. She was sentenced to three to four months in prison for the crime of money laundering, and one year and two months for the crime of jointly defrauding three or more people to obtain property. The whole case can still be appealed.
