Ah...  ic.

Average 100M per head. 🤑

Then I'm gonna guess it's to buy freedom from China death sentence. Even if left 10M..... will be a good living if it gives them a clean bill to go to US.

Xi bad won't be happy though 😆

Cannot be.....

It is illegal to use funds known to have come from scams, and other illegal activity. Government won't be allowed to do anything with it....... unless one law for one, one for another but that cannot be.

SINGAPORE – In a case involving the first prosecution under a new law aimed at addressing risks relating to money laundering, a business called Kim Heng Jewellers and Goldsmiths was fined $35,000 on Nov 19.

Two employees of the store, located at People’s Park Complex in Park Road, sold valuables worth more than $313,000 in total to customers, and over $140,000 of that amount was later traced to two Singaporean victims of a malware scam.

The women, who were working for the store at the time, had processed the payments without conducting the necessary checks, despite having reasons to suspect that the funds were linked to money laundering activities.

For this case, there are at least 3 offences:

1. Store owner did not train the staff "properly" on KYC check required

2. No KYC check on customer with large purchases

3. No action taken on customer using red flag PayNow account.

I'm not disputing why they got punished.

This whole group of fujian gangs are farmers !! Dun think they are smart in anyway except willing to risk and do illegal stuffs ... 

They were pretty low profile during their first 2 years here until they started to feel over confident and became too high profile with the properties / cars / jewels they buy ... 

One of them actually offered me 350k to take over one of my car order cos he does not want to wait ...  heng i rejected cos i still managed to sell that car for a 300k profit after having it for almost 2 years lo ...
