1. The Client Who Came to a Mokpo Fraud Attorney

Mokpo Fraud Attorney

The client requested the assistance of the fraud attorney at the Mokpo office in order to proceed with the case together with a criminal defense attorney experienced in various fraud cases.

How the Client Came to a Mokpo Fraud Attorney

The account of the client who requested a consultation with the Mokpo fraud attorney is as follows.

While looking for work online, the client received a part-time job offer from an unidentified person.

The offer was that, if the client used money deposited into an account in the client's name to purchase gift certificates and then delivered them to a particular person, the client would be paid 200,000 won per day.

In urgent need of money, the client accepted this offer.

However, the work the client was performing was related to the crimes of a voice phishing organization.

The client aided the voice phishing organization by facilitating its crimes through methods such as delivering a total of about 50 million won worth of gift certificates to the unidentified person.

🔗Voice phishing inflicts serious financial and psychological harm on victims, and aiding and abetting fraud in particular can worsen the spread of crime and the resulting harm, so the courts treat it severely.

Seeking to proceed with the case together with a criminal defense attorney who has extensive experience and know-how in fraud cases, the client came to the Mokpo fraud attorney.

2. A Mokpo Fraud Attorney Explains the Statutes Relevant to the Case

Aiding and abetting fraud is an offense committed when a person, although not directly participating in a fraud crime, provides convenience to the criminal act by creating items such as a dummy bank account or a cash card.

Criminal Act Article 347 (Fraud)
① A person who, by deceiving another, obtains property or acquires a pecuniary advantage shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than 10 years or by a fine not exceeding 20 million won.

Criminal Act Article 32 (Aiding and Abetting Fraud)
① A person who aids and abets the crime of another shall be punished as an accomplice.
② The punishment for an accomplice shall be mitigated below that for the principal offender.

For example, if fraudster A calls a victim and attempts voice phishing while fraudster B helps carry out the fraud by calling the victim pretending to be a bank employee and extracting account information, then B has aided and abetted A's voice phishing fraud.

3. The Mokpo Fraud Attorney's Assistance

To reduce the client's sentence as much as possible, the Mokpo fraud attorney assembled a task force of 3 to 20 criminal law specialists and analyzed the case in detail.

The attorney argued the following points and earnestly appealed for leniency for the client.

Mokpo Fraud Attorney's Argument 1: The Client Was Not Aware of the Voice Phishing Crime

The client thought only about the part-time work itself and did not suspect that the activity was connected to a crime.

In light of the fact that the client did not even think to conceal personal details while doing the part-time work and did not engage in conduct such as covering the face, it was emphasized that the client had not accurately recognized the voice phishing crime.

Mokpo Fraud Attorney's Argument ② There Was No Intent to Go Along With the Crime

The client did not think that the work facilitated the crimes of a voice phishing organization.

A few days later, when the client tried to make a payment to have a meal, the client discovered that the bank account had been frozen.

In light of the fact that the client even called the bank directly to confirm the reason the account had been frozen, it can be seen that there was no intent whatsoever to go along with the crime.

It was also emphasized that the client gained no profit at all from the crime.

Mokpo Fraud Attorney's Argument ③ The Client Is Deeply Remorseful

Setting aside the circumstances of the case, the client is deeply remorseful that the client's offense caused great suffering to many victims.

Deeply repentant of these actions, the client cooperated actively with the investigation by submitting conversation records and materials to the police, and this was emphasized.

4. The Court's Decision on the Mokpo Fraud Attorney's Arguments

Accepting the Mokpo fraud attorney's arguments, the court ruled, ‘The defendant is sentenced to two years of imprisonment. However, the execution of the above sentence is suspended for three years from the date this judgment becomes final.’
