A couple from Sydney has recently found themselves in hot water as they face charges of money laundering. Their alleged crimes involve scamming and sextortion of over 300 individuals. It's a serious accusation that has caught the attention of the Organised Crime Squad, who wasted no time in taking action.
Early yesterday morning, detectives from the Organised Crime Squad made their move. They arrived at an address on Elizabeth Street in Sydney's CBD, where they apprehended a 29-year-old woman. At the same time, another team of detectives raided a property in Parramatta, where they arrested a 31-year-old man.
The man was taken to Parramatta Police Station, while the woman was taken to Surry Hills Police Station. Both have been charged with recklessly dealing with the proceeds of crime intended to be concealed. It's a serious charge that carries significant consequences.
The police have not disclosed the exact amount of money involved in this scheme, but they have revealed that it includes various scams such as sextortion, cardless cash scams, business email compromise scams, and phishing scams. It's a sophisticated operation that the couple is accused of being a part of.
As of now, both individuals have been denied bail and are scheduled to appear in court today. It's a tense situation for them, as they face the consequences of their alleged actions. However, it's worth noting that they have not been charged with conducting the scams directly. The investigation into Strike Force Scottsboro is still ongoing, and it's possible that more charges may arise. It's a stark reminder that crime does not pay, and the law will catch up with those who engage in it.
