Virtual currency is listed as illegal fund raising

Virtual currency fraud calls 110 directly

many departments, such as the China Banking and Insurance Regulatory Commission, the central office of information technology, the Ministry of public security and so on, issued risk tips, saying that some criminals, under the banner of "financial innovation" and "blockchain", absorbed funds by issuing the so-called "virtual currency", "virtual assets" and "digital assets", thus infringing the legitimate rights and interests of the public

this kind of activity is not really based on blockchain technology, but on the hype of blockchain concept, illegal fund-raising, pyramid selling and fraud. In essence, it is a Ponzi scheme of "repaying the old by borrowing the new", which is difficult to maintain the long-term operation of funds

the public should treat the blockchain rationally, not blindly believe the promises, establish a correct monetary concept and investment concept, and effectively improve the risk awareness. Report to the public security organ in time after being cheated

extended data:

the first is the obvious networking and cross-border of virtual currency. Relying on the Internet and chat tools for transactions, and using online payment tools to balance funds, the risks spread widely and spread quickly. Some lawless elements set up websites by renting overseas servers to carry out activities for domestic residents and control illegal activities remotely

some indivials claim that they have obtained the investment quota of overseas high-quality blockchain projects in the chat tool group and can invest on their behalf, which is most likely fraud. Most of these illegal funds flow overseas, which makes it very difficult to supervise and trace

followed by deception, temptation and concealment. They use hot concepts to hype, fabricate various "tall and tall" theories, and some also use celebrity "big V" platforms to publicize. They use airdrop "candy" as temptation to claim that "currency value only rises but not falls", "investment cycle is short, income is high, and risk is low", which has strong bewitching

in practice, criminals illegally make huge profits by manipulating the price trend of the so-called virtual currency, setting profit and withdrawal threshold. In addition, some criminals also issue tokens under the guise of ICO, IFO, IEO, etc., or hype virtual currency in the way of IMO under the banner of sharing economy, which has strong concealment and confusion

finally, there are many kinds of illegal risks in this kind of behavior. Through public publicity, the illegal elements attract the public to invest funds, lure investors and development personnel to join, and constantly expand the fund pool with the t of currency appreciation and development offline profits, which has the characteristics of illegal fund-raising, pyramid selling, fraud and other illegal acts

Cheng tycoons use virtual currency to launder money, which is illegal fund-raising. Let's first understand the definition of illegal fund-raising on the Internet. Illegal fund-raising is a kind of criminal activity. It means that an entity or indivial raises funds from the public by issuing stocks, bonds, lottery tickets, investment funds, securities or other debt certificates without the approval of relevant departments in accordance with legal proceres, And promise to repay the principal and interest or give return to the investor in money and other ways within a certain period of time. And in China, it is clearly stipulated that investment in virtual currency is illegal, and the circulation and transaction of virtual currency is explicitly prohibited{ RRRRR}

"Financial crimes in the name of Internet finance are becoming more and more serious." Jiang Shuzhen, director and prosecutor of the economic crime Department of the Beijing municipal procuratorate, told reporters that in recent years, the number of cases of building self financing platform in the name of P2P and issuing false credit transfer projects to finance themselves has increased year by year, and the harm has become more and more serious. In addition, illegal fund-raising in the name of virtual currency and blockchain also began to appear

in addition, the regulation of financial laws and regulations on new financial formats such as Internet finance is relatively backward. Jiang Shuzhen, for example, in recent years, there have been illegal and criminal activities such as "Huaqiang coin" and "five element coin" with virtual currency as a gimmick. On September 4, 2017, the central bank and other seven ministries and commissions jointly issued the "notice on preventing the risks of token issuance and financing", which timely reminded the public to be alert to the risks of token issuance and financing and transactions, and achieved good results. But what is the meaning of token, There is a lack of law enforcement norms to regulate the illegal issuance of securities, illegal fund-raising, financial fraud, pyramid schemes and other illegal activities. In view of the problems exposed in Internet finance, blockchain and other new formats, we should improve the relevant laws and regulations as soon as possible to promote the effective connection between administrative law enforcement and criminal justice
