【Criminal Facts】

1. Frauds related to the tax investigation;

On November 2012, the Defendant made a false statement to the effect that “D”, which was known to the victim C while engaging in usual cargo transport brokerage in a restaurant in Incheon's trade name, was subject to a tax investigation, and that deposit is necessary to prove the amount of KRW 14 million, which is the transaction performance of the previous year. The Defendant made a false statement to the effect that “I will return money again after the completion of the tax investigation at the face of deposit.”

However, the defendant did not have any particular property, and there was no intention or ability to repay the money borrowed from the victim.

Ultimately, around November 20, 2012, the Defendant, by deceiving the victim as such, received KRW 600,000 from the foreign exchange bank account (Account Number: E) under the name of the Defendant from the victim, and acquired KRW 15,000 in total from the victim 1 to December 5, 2012 as shown in the attached Table 1 (victim C) to 19, as shown in the attached Table 1 (victim C) from around the above time to December 5, 2012.

2. Frauds related to the additional tax investigation;

Around December 2012, the Defendant made a false statement to the effect that “The Defendant would pay additional money to the said victim as it comes to the end of the deposit of the said additional money because the tax investigation was not completed.”

However, the defendant did not have any particular property, and there was no intention or ability to repay the money borrowed from the victim.

Ultimately, the Defendant, as described in the attached Table 1 (victim C) from around December 6, 2012, by deceiving the victim, received KRW 1,500,00 from the victim to the above account under the name of the Defendant, and received KRW 1,50,00 from the victim on December 6, 2012, and obtained KRW 59,228,50 in total from the victim on 39 occasions, as described in the attached Table 1 (victim C) from around the above time to February 22, 2013.

3. Frauds related to criminal cases;

Around March 2013, the Defendant continued to engage in a criminal investigation and was charged with a fine of KRW 80,000,000 for the above victim. When a fine is imposed, the Defendant made a false statement to the effect that “the money should be refunded to the head of the Tong.”

Ultimately, the Defendant, as described in the attached Table 1 (victim C) between around March 9, 2013 and around December 30, 2013, by deceiving the victim as such, received KRW 400,000 from the victim’s account under the name of the Defendant and received KRW 400,00 from the victim, and acquired it by deceptioning KRW 92,420,000 in total over 47 times from the victim, as described in the attached Table 1 (victim C) from around the above time to December 30, 2013.

4. Violation of the Act on the Aggravated Punishment, etc. of Specific Economic Crimes;

Around January 2014, the Defendant made a false statement to the effect that “the money received from the Defendant is all deposited in the court.” The Defendant borrowed money to the effect that “the money should be claimed.”

However, the defendant did not have any particular property, and there was no intention or ability to repay the money borrowed from the victim.

Ultimately, the Defendant, as described in the attached Table 1(C) from around January 2, 2014, by deceiving the victim, received KRW 2,000,000 from the victim’s account in the name of the Defendant, and acquired KRW 79,321,00 on a total amount of 295 occasions from the victim as stated in the attached Table 1(C) to June 19, 2016, as stated in the attached Table 1(C) from around the above time to June 19, 2016.

On August 21, 2016, the Defendant posted the contents of “Seoul Maga, 50,000 won and toys” on the “original call bulletin board,” which is a mobile cargo brokerage brokerage brokerage, in the “original call bulletin board,” and the Defendant made a false statement to the effect that “The Defendant would give 50,000 won for the delivery of toys from the Gyeonggisan to the Magwon-dong, Seoul, with the victim’s telephone call when the victim F expressed his intent to transport the goods through the above fishing call.”

However, the Defendant had no particular property, and had been in arrears with a large amount of debt from several lending companies, and had been used to repay the transport expenses received from the owner of the goods as a bond, and there was no intention or ability to pay the transport expenses agreed upon even if the said victim transported the goods with the above content.

As such, the Defendant: (a) obtained pecuniary benefits equivalent to the same amount from 78 victims to 16,25,000 won in total from 78 victims during the period from around the above time to November 2, 2016, including the acquisition of pecuniary benefits equivalent to the same amount by deceiving the victim and allowing the victim to transport cargo; and (b) not paying the transport expense, as indicated in attached Table 2 (victim 78).
