<h1>Money laundering enforcement: assets frozen and mule payment instruments seized in probe of illegal betting platform's layering scheme</h1> Enforcement action under PMLA identified user funds routed through mule bank accounts and seized mule credit cards after finding that the betting platform collected payments via surrogate Indian entities, used DMTs and rejected payment companies as technology service providers to onboard mule accounts, and obscured flows through cash withdrawals to hawala, virtual wallet recharges and cryptocurrency purchases, with transfers disguised as e commerce refunds, chargebacks and vendor payments.
