Punishment of the crime

[2019 Highest 1171] On January 15, 2019, the Defendant visited “B,” a game item transaction site, and visited the victim as if the victim C would normally pay a price and purchase the account by paying a normal price.

However, the defendant did not have the intent or ability to pay the transaction price in the game account to the victim.

Nevertheless, the Defendant explained that the victim may receive the said mileage after the transaction with the victim was completed, and that the victim could receive the said mileage, and then charge the account transaction amount of KRW 1,300,000 with the mileage. Therefore, the Defendant made a false statement that the ID and password of the victim’s account should be known.

Ultimately, the Defendant, by deceiving the victim as above, received the ID and password of the said game account from the victim.

Accordingly, the defendant acquired the pecuniary profit equivalent to 1.3 million won from the victim.

However, in fact, the defendant obtained information from the victim who believed that the price was paid in spite of no intention or ability to purchase the Roba Account, and obtained information from the victim to change the information, thereby taking over the ID and password of the account equivalent to KRW 5,200,000 in the market price and acquired the pecuniary profits equivalent to the amount.
