In an attempt to evade law enforcement, criminals have turned to using digital RMB for money laundering. Recently, the Huishan District Prosecutor's Office in Wuxi, China, handled a case where suspects used a digital RMB wallet to help a cross-border online gambling gang split and transfer stolen funds. The suspects joined a group on a social media platform to use legitimate third-party payment channels to collect payments and then transfer them to designated accounts to earn commissions, a method known as "running points."

The arrested suspect, Li, knowingly opened a digital RMB account using his and others' identity information to receive online gambling funds, helping to settle over 4 million yuan in illegal proceeds, earning over 50,000 yuan in illegal profits. The police reminded the public to stay away from illegal activities such as online gambling and to protect personal information and not to lend or rent out personal bank accounts, or they will assume corresponding legal responsibilities.
