Argentine police arrest two in online casino money-mule investigation
Argentine police said they arrested two people in an investigation into a network accused of using people’s identities to open bank and e-payment accounts for illicit online casino proceeds. Officers seized US$174,460, other currencies, electronic equipment and vehicles during raids, and are seeking two additional suspects. The investigation is led by Federal Judge Santiago Inchausti and Federal Prosecutor Laura Mazzaferri.
The investigation could affect operators and payment providers facing scrutiny over accounts linked to suspected illegal gambling proceeds.
