This is a case in which a client who came to the voice phishing attorney was at risk of punishment on charges of acting as a voice phishing cash collector, but received an acquittal through the systematic assistance of a criminal law attorney.

The Client Involved in a Voice Phishing Cash Collector Charge

The circumstances of the client who came to the voice phishing attorney to request assistance are as follows.

The client registered a resume on a job-search site to find work and was receiving various job offers.

The client accepted one of those offers and began work right away.

At first, the client started the work believing it to be debt-collection work.

Not long afterward, the client received notice from an investigative agency that an investigation into fraud charges was being commenced and could not hide the bewilderment.

The client came to the voice phishing attorney seeking to defend against punishment with the assistance of an attorney who has handled numerous 🔗voice phishing cases.

2. The Voice Phishing Cash Collector Role Explained by a Voice Phishing Specialist Lawyer

The client, who had been wrongly identified as a voice phishing cash collector, sought to succeed in defending against punishment with the assistance of a specialized attorney.

Let us take a closer look at what a voice phishing cash collector is and what the punishment ranges are.

Sentencing for the Voice Phishing Cash Collector Role

A voice phishing cash collector refers to a person assigned the role of directly collecting or delivering cash from victims within a voice phishing crime organization.

Such persons may claim to be mere couriers, but legally they are regarded as accomplices who participated in the crime and are subject to severe punishment.

The cases in which ordinary people are most often implicated in voice phishing crimes involve taking on the role of a “courier” or “collector.”

In particular, a characteristic of these roles is that they are mainly recruited through job-search websites.

If a person has actively participated in a voice phishing crime, the charge of fraud may be recognized, and the person may be punished under the following provision.

Fraud (Article 347 of the Criminal Act)

A person who, by deceiving another, takes property delivered to him or obtains a pecuniary advantage shall be punished by imprisonment for not more than 10 years or by a fine not exceeding 20 million won.

※ Even money mistaken for part-time wages may be regarded as proceeds of a voice phishing crime during the investigation, so caution is required.

3. The Voice Phishing Specialist Lawyer's Case Response Strategy

Daeryun voice phishing attorney voice phishing collector acquittal case

The voice phishing attorney conducted a thorough consultation with the client and accurately established the circumstances of the case.

In order to obtain an acquittal from the court, the attorney advanced the following arguments.

Voice Phishing Specialist Lawyer's Argument (1): The Absence of Deception and Intent

The client believed that he was performing legitimate work and had no idea at all that he was serving as a cash collector for a voice phishing organization.

The client could not even have imagined that the job offer had come from a voice phishing ring.

Accordingly, the attorney emphasized that there was no intent of deception or fraud whatsoever in the client's conduct.

Voice Phishing Specialist Lawyer's Argument (2): The Client as a Victim

The voice phishing organization deceived the client into believing that the client was performing legitimate part-time work.

The client believed the claim that he would be converted to a permanent position after a certain period and that an employment contract would soon be drawn up.

In this way, it was emphasized that the client had not participated in the voice phishing organization but was rather a victim who had suffered harm.

Voice Phishing Specialist Lawyer's Argument (3): The Client's Voluntary Surrender

This case began not because an investigative agency first commenced an investigation, but because the client, having raised doubts about his own affairs, voluntarily surrendered.

The client faithfully submitted the details of the money he had received as well as all materials.

The attorney emphasized that, if the client had been aware, even with dolus eventualis, that he was participating in a fraud offense, he would not have surrendered in this manner.

4. Result of the Voice Phishing Specialist Lawyer's Assistance: “Acquittal”

The court accepted the argument of the voice phishing attorney and ultimately pronounced ‘not guilty’.

Having concluded the case with an acquittal, the client expressed deep gratitude, saying that the client was able to receive an acquittal thanks to the systematic assistance of the voice phishing attorney.
