Win: Full Joint and Several Damages of KRW 182.9 Million in YouTube Shorts Side-Job Team Mission Scam

Case Overview

Our client came across an advertisement for a side job watching YouTube Shorts videos and, while participating in team missions through an impersonation application (Noktib), was deceived by collective psychological pressure under the pretexts of mission-failure penalties and unfreezing the account, and was defrauded of more than KRW 174 million in total through accounts in the defendants' names.

Our Strategy

Understanding the nature of electronic financial fraud carried out through an organized division of labor, DAEON's attorneys swiftly organized the fund-tracing records and messenger conversation logs as evidence and vigorously pursued joint and several liability based on Joint Wrongdoing against all of the defendants. Through meticulous proof of the facts, we obtained from the court a perfect winning judgment ordering the three defendants jointly to pay in full KRW 182.93 million—including the entire principal lost and Emotional Distress—plus statutory interest.
