An organization that made sales of 190 billion won by operating a licensed Internet futures trading site was captured and brought to trial. On the 19th, the Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office (Director Ji-ae Won) of the Seoul Central District Prosecutor’s Office (Director Won Ji-ae) detected a total of 40 members of the organization who obtained about 190 billion won on sales by operating an unauthorized virtual futures trading site and violated capital market law. It was revealed that he was charged with arresting charges such as opening a gaming space.

The prosecution briefly prosecuted eight people, including call center executives who were charged with the same charges, and 14 people, including an online broadcaster (BJ) that lured members at expense, were briefly prosecuted for helping in violations of the capital market law. Five people, including supplying cannon beads, suspended the indictment or suspended the referral.

Yoon, who was arrested in April last year, was sentenced to two years and six months in prison in the Supreme Court in May this year, and his aunt, 36, who was arrested in January this year as head of the weekly call center financing team, was sentenced to one year and six months in prison last November. As a result of the prosecution’s investigation, the stake owner was identified as a gang member in Daegu, and the person in charge of supplying the cannon bill was another gang member in Daegu.

According to the prosecution, they run a call center in China from April 2014 to May this year, run an unauthorized gift site, and have members transact futures through a home buying program, and are charged To increase sales by about 190 billion won. Although the real market futures index, like the KOSPI 200, became the trading standard, it was a kind of cyber gambling venue that predicted fluctuations in futures prices rather than buying and selling various stocks.

As a result of the prosecution’s investigation, the brokerage firm obtaining the permit from the exchange requires a margin of around 5 million won to 30 million won, and this site allows futures trading for only about 300,000 won, so It was possible to generate basic profits by receiving transaction fees from many people in a short period of time.

According to the client list file obtained by the prosecution through seizure and registration, the number of members attracted during the three years from July 2014 to August 2017 reached 10,000. In addition to the transaction fee, it was revealed that the difference between the user’s profit and loss after the virtual transaction was approximately 5.3 billion won as additional revenue from the management team.

This method turned out to be that the more the user investment loss caused by the virtual transaction increased, the higher the management team profit, so it was found that BJs, commonly known as ‘leading experts’, induce opposing bets or they block access to the site by users who make profits.

The BJs received subsidies in exchange for attracting site members and they spread the value of the item upside down, with users ordering in the opposite direction. The prosecution has received the decision to preserve the additional collection of about 2.3 billion won of criminal proceeds and is being enforced. He also plans to claim additional compensation for about 3 billion won in criminal income from the recently prosecuted defendants.
