MHA alert on illegal payment gateways run from overseas

NEW DELHI: Indian Cyber Crime Coordination Centre (I4C) under the Union Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) has issued a high-level alert against transnational organised cybercriminals using illegal payment gateways for money laundering, officials said on Tuesday.

The warnings from the I4C came following nationwide raids by Gujarat and Andhra Pradesh police, which uncovered illicit gateways created using mule bank accounts.
