Luxembourg banks are exploring new methods of money laundering

To know these scams by heart and prevent them easier, of course. The most common way of fraud at the moment is with the help of money mules and their recruiters. Such money laundering is very difficult to trace and stop.

A money mule is a person who receives money into their account, then transfers it to a third party or cashes it out and hands it over. For this they receive a certain commission. From mid-September to the end of November of this year, 8755 money mules and 222 recruiters were captured around the world.

Although Luxembourg did not take part in this European operation, the ABBL Grand Duchy Banking Union plans to better explore options for money laundering using cryptocurrencies. The Union believes that this method will be widespread in the future, and it is necessary to look for tools against it now.
