Cambodia Publicly Identifies Legend Innovation, Operator of Largest Telecom Fraud Hub, Tied to Prince Group
According to Caixin, Cambodia has publicly disclosed the inner workings of the telecom fraud compound known as "Zone 8" for the first time. Dubbed a "scam city," it is Cambodia's largest fraud operation, capable of housing up to 20,000 individuals trafficked and forced to engage in online fraud. The site is operated by the Cambodian company Legend Innovation. Blockchain analytics firm Elliptic's investigation revealed that the operator is linked to Prince Group. Legend Innovation is alleged to maintain ties with the US- and UK-sanctioned Prince Group through corporate phone numbers, director activities, and related business records. Notably, the registered phone number used by Legend Innovation previously appeared in documents concerning a real estate company alleged to be part of Prince Group's network.
