Enforcement & compliance

Thailand’s Technology Crime Suppression Division 4 said a couple and another woman allegedly recruited people, including children, to open bank accounts for sale to online gambling operators and voice-phishing groups. Police said recruiters paid children 3,000 baht per account and that the network charged operators 30,000 baht; officers are questioning young people to gather information, not prosecute them.

The investigation concerns alleged criminal account networks supplying online gambling operators and involving children.
