South Korean police have launched an investigation into a current police officer accused of defrauding investors of over 400 million won through a cryptocurrency investment scam. The scheme promised daily returns of 2% on investments in virtual assets such as Bitcoin, deceiving more than 1,400 victims and siphoning off more than 30 billion won. Authorities have also apprehended a group involved in scamming elderly individuals through virtual asset investments. Separately, in Thailand, the Central Investigation Bureau dismantled an illegal digital asset exchange network with over 14 billion baht in circulation. Coordinated raids across Phuket, Samui, Pattaya, and Bangkok led to the seizure of assets and arrests at eight locations.
