A female security guard in Hsinchu sold a newly created bank account to a scam group for 30,000 NT, leading to a wealthy woman being scammed out of 24 million NT. Despite claiming she could only afford to compensate 10,000 NT, the Hsinchu District Court sentenced her to 4 months in prison for money laundering and fined her 30,000 NT, in addition to requiring her to fully compensate the wealthy woman for the 24 million NT. The court found that the guard, with a monthly salary of around 38,000 NT, was lured by the scam group and facilitated the fraudulent activity, resulting in the huge financial loss for the victim.
