Old Crimes, New Tech: Mixers, Crypto and Dirty Money

What this episode covers

Like night needs day, criminals have always needed money launderers. But how is the digital revolution changing the laundering business? This week on Whale Hunting, host Bradley Hope speaks to Geoff White, author of the new book Rinsed, about the increasingly sophisticated digital skills used by money launderers around the world. Together, they discuss how the industry has embraced new technology, from online brokers to methods like layering and using crypto mixers — as well as jumping into some of the most intriguing cases from Rinsed, including a Manchester drug trafficking group and a group of ingenious North Korean hackers. Geoff's book, Rinsed, is out online and in all good bookshops from 13 June. Want more from Whale Hunting?
