Case Overview
Our client was deceived by unidentified members of an investment Chat-Room ring dangling the lure of coin profit payouts, remitted the enormous sum of KRW 167 million in installments to designated accounts, and then faced a severe financial crisis when withdrawals were blocked.
Our Strategy
To preempt the possibility that the Money Mule Account Holders would deny any involvement in the fraud and evade liability, DAEON's attorneys precisely joined a primary claim for Damages with an alternative claim for restitution of unjust enrichment, neutralizing the other side's defense. We also tenaciously proved the illegality of transferring the access media and the proximate causal link to participation in the fraud, securing full recognition against the principal defendant of the entire KRW 167 million principal lost plus default interest.
