For law enforcers, data analysis is usually seen as a tool in an investigation, rather than its origin. But for a sprawling money laundering case that spanned multiple continents and eventually disrupted annual flow of over $300 million in laundered transactions, the suspicious data was the starting point. This case study will disprove the myth of crypto criminals’ invulnerability.

You will learn how to:

• Identify how the U.S. banking system makes crypto money launderers vulnerable to detection
• Appreciate the importance of SARs and IC3 reports to investigators, even years after they were filed
• Recognize how collaboration enabled financial institutions, law enforcers and prosecutors to successfully uncover more than 20 crypto money launderers, charge them and seize their assets
