Punishment of the crime

On December 27, 2018, the Defendant sent a false statement to the effect that “I will sell a game account if I sent money” by accessing “B”, an Internet site, at a place where the address is unknown, and by visiting “B,” posted by the victim C,” and that “I will sell a game account if I sent money.”

However, since the defendant did not have the above game account, even if he received money from the victim, he did not have the intent or ability to sell the above game account.

However, in fact, the defendant had no intention or ability to transfer IDs even if he had already transferred it to another person, because he had already received money from the victim.
