Details of the Incident in South Korea
According to the report, the police in South Korea have arrested members of a 'revenge' group that was being paid in cryptocurrency for making threats and vandalizing property using human waste.
Law enforcement officials stated that the group had around 30 members who organized attacks on people, using human excrement. The perpetrators would spread feces on vehicles, entrance doors, and other objects, causing both material and moral damage to their victims.
The police also confiscated the cryptocurrency used to pay for the criminal activity. The exact amount is not disclosed, but the report indicates that the group members were paid in cryptocurrency for each 'revenge' act.
Experts note that the use of cryptocurrencies to finance illegal activities remains a serious problem that requires constant attention from law enforcement and regulators. The anonymity of cryptocurrency transactions attracts criminal groups, but the development of methods for detecting and tracing such operations helps to effectively combat this phenomenon.
