Cambodia extradites suspected crypto scam boss to China – DW – 01/08/2026
Chinese authorities on Thursday confirmed that Cambodia had extradited a tycoon accused of running a massive online scam operation.
Chinese-born Chen Zhi is chairman of Prince Holding Group, one of Cambodia’s largest conglomerates that the US says has served as a front for “one of Asia’s largest transnational criminal organizations.”
The US had indicted and sanctioned him in October on fraud and money-laundering charges over running a multibillion-dollar cyberscam network from Cambodia.
Cambodia said on Wednesday it arrested him and two other Chinese nationals and extradited them to China.
