Seven members of organized crime syndicates were arrested for participating in a voice phishing call center based in Dalian and Qingdao, China, from July 2017 to September 2019 and stealing approximately 2.9 billion won from 58 victims.
They were arrested and indicted on the 14th of this month. Prior to this, in December 2023, the Joint Investigation Team arrested and indicted 19 people on the same charges, and indicted one person without arrest. After that, the seven people learned that the investigation was ongoing.
