10 suspected "money mules" in Metro Vancouver warned over alleged illicit funds transfer linked to investment fraud.
The RCMP and British Columbia Securities Commission have warned 10 suspected "money mules" in Metro Vancouver over their alleged involvement in transferring illicit funds. The suspects were identified after investigators discovered they had sent or received money or cryptocurrency from victims of investment fraud. Money mules are used by criminals to conceal the source and destination of their funds, and in some cases, the mules themselves may be unaware they are assisting with money laundering activities.
