Mule Lantern
Victims' words light up mule accounts; refer them before the next victim pays.
The job
Turns what scam victims, and customers who got money by mistake, say into linked leads on mule accounts used to move scam money, fast enough to refer them before more victims pay in. Investigators get one network, not forty tickets.
The moment
The app links what scam victims say to the accounts they paid into. At 10:20 a third victim's chat names the same receiving account as two app reviews from the night before.
The three reports snap onto one pin on the map, marking a likely mule account used to move scam money.
The money laundering reporting officer refers it at 10:24, and the account is restricted within the hour.
The victim count stops at three. A grey projection line estimates about 9 more victims and $27,000 lost had the account stayed open.
What it does
- Pin a beneficiary
- Refer to the financial-crime case system
