Typically, the gangs exploit the bank accounts of students by depositing, withdrawing and transferring onwards sums of money, with the promise of a percentage for the student to keep. The money being moved has usually been obtained through fraudulent means and is used for further criminal activity, making students who take part in this scam complicit in this crime which could put their future at risk.
