#Myanmar's Northern Telecom Fraud Group Eliminated#

The Ministry of Public Security recently announced that since launching a special campaign to crack down on telecom and network fraud crimes in northern Myanmar in July 2023, significant progress has been made. By the end of 2024, a total of over 53,000 Chinese suspects involved in fraud crimes had been apprehended, the notorious "Four Major Families" criminal group in Kachin State, northern Myanmar, had been completely dismantled, and large-scale fraud parks in northern Myanmar near the Chinese border had been completely eradicated. Currently, the cases involving the "Four Major Families" criminal group have gradually entered the litigation stage. Although significant progress has been made in combating and governing these crimes, the current criminal situation remains severe and complex. Fraudulent groups are constantly updating and upgrading their criminal tools by utilizing new technologies such as blockchain, virtual currency, and AI intelligence, leading to an escalation of offensive and defensive confrontations. The Ministry of Public Security will continue to rely on the China-Myanmar law enforcement and security cooperation mechanism to fully investigate cases and resolutely crack down on telecom and network fraud crimes.
