The name of the bank card involved in the case shows that it is Xiong Mou, Minshan Township, Chaisang District, and after receiving the information that the card was associated with an internet fraud case in a certain place in Shandong, the police of the Anti-Fraud Center of Chaisang District, Jiujiang City, Jiangxi Province, investigated and analyzed Xiong's situation in May and found that Xiong often went in and out of an office building in the urban area of Jiujiang City. Through observation, the police noticed that there were many people who entered and exited the office building with Xiong on a regular basis. At this time, a trading company called "Jiujiang Hanzang" immediately entered the police's sight.

After investigation, the scope of the business license of "Hanzo Company" is sales agency, Internet sales, domestic trade agent, etc. The company's organizational structure is meticulous, the management is standardized, the division of labor is clear, and people who do not know it think that this is a legitimate Internet trading company. But the police saw the abnormality, this company is all young people, orderly three shifts, 24 hours a day, all night up to the lights, what business will be so busy?

After further investigation by the police, it was found that in addition to computers, there were a large number of bank cards, U shields and mobile phone cards in the work area of the "Hanzo Company". Moreover, the bank card information under the names of the company's operators, participating operators and employees is suspected of receiving online fraud or gambling fund transfers, and even the bank card information of their relatives and friends has left traces in other online fraud or gambling cases, thus judging that "Hanzo Company" is suspected of online fraud or gambling.

With the deepening of the investigation, the police found that the actual controller of the "Hanzo Company" was Wu Mou (pseudonym), Xiong Mou was the legal representative and fully managed the company, while other employees of the company participated in the company's operation in the form of unequal funds into the shares, and the source of income was basic salary plus business commission and share dividends. Driven by the desire for high income, the company's employees have borrowed, rented or acquired bank cards from their relatives and friends. After the shareholders and employees bind the bank cards in their hands to online banking, they are transferred to the "Hanzo Company" to help information network crimes and make profits for upstream network fraud or gambling companies to "run points" to launder money. After investigation, one of the shareholders submitted more than 80 bank cards to the company at one time.

After a large number of investigations, in early August, just as the police were preparing to carry out a network collection operation against the "Hanzo Company", it was suddenly found that the company had gone to the empty building overnight. Could it be that the secret investigation of the police has missed the wind? After further tracking, it was learned that the "Hanzo Company" had relocated the equipment and personnel as a whole to another e-sports hotel in the urban area, and the business was carried out as usual, but the personnel were less. When the police prepared to strike for the second time, the company once again quietly disappeared and did not know where to go.

In early September, the police found traces of the "Hanzo Company" in an abandoned building materials city in Jiujiang District. After several consecutive days of squatting day and night, on the evening of September 9, the police seized the opportunity to dispatch more than 20 police forces to arrest the criminal gang of "Hanzo Company".
