Betraying her country for 2,000 Tether coins? Female coast guard sergeant caught selling secrets to China, trying to make another 500,000.

For 2000 U treason?

The Bridgehead Local Prosecutor's Office in Taiwan recently concluded a major case involving national security. A female corporal surnamed Wu from a southern branch of the Coast Guard Administration in Taiwan, due to financial difficulties, used her position to secretly film confidential documents and sold important national information to Chinese nationals through cryptocurrency transactions.

It is reported that a female soldier surnamed Wu, who used to work in the Sixth Coast Guard Team of the Southern Branch of the Coast Guard Administration, was recruited by Chinese national Wang Jincai on a social platform last year due to financial pressure. Starting from mid-November last year, she took the opportunity during duty to secretly film confidential documents including the third-level 'National Key Infrastructure Protection' exercise records, duty briefings, and annual work reports of the Pingtung Shejie Radar Station, and sent them to Wang Jincai via LINE.

According to the investigation by the Qiaotou District Prosecutor's Office, in this case, Ms. Wu received 73,000 Tether (USDT) from Wang Jincai, thinking that she could obtain coins through encryption with anonymity, and conceal her criminal traces without anyone knowing.

Still want to make another 500,000 and be exposed

However, Wu's greed did not stop there. Within just one month after the first transaction, Wang Jincai once again offered a high price of 500,000 yuan for her to obtain higher level confidential information, such as the Dongsha defense plan, handover materials for the command center, equipment deployment maps, and other information.

However, Ms. Wu contacted her colleague surnamed Ye in the southern branch through LINE, but the colleague surnamed Ye refused to cooperate and reported the situation to the superiors, which eventually exposed the whole case.

In May this year, the prosecutor brought charges against Ms. Wu for the crimes of intending to endanger national security, leaking secrets other than national defense, and accepting bribes in violation of her duty. The prosecution believes that her actions have posed a significant threat to national security, especially at a time when cross-strait relations are tense. The sale of intelligence could cause immeasurable damage to defense deployment.

The Qiaotou District Court recently rendered a first-instance judgment, determining that Ms. Wu's criminal facts were clear. Although she confessed during the interrogation and was willing to return the proceeds of the crime, the court still sentenced her to a combined term of 6 years and 2 months in prison for two crimes, and deprived her of political rights for three years. The case is currently appealable.

China's infiltration is becoming increasingly serious

The case of Ms. Wu highlights the seriousness of national security loopholes and challenges the internal management of the military and police units. 'encryption City' has previously reported on two similar cases, both of which are examples of China attempting to attract Taiwanese military officers through bribery.

Security experts have also called on both military and police personnel as well as ordinary citizens to remain vigilant, especially when it comes to the allure of unfamiliar sources. After all, actions like that of Ms. Wu not only pose a threat to the nation but also result in heavy consequences that ultimately outweigh any gains.
