The case of a large transnational pornographic live broadcast platform on the Internet supervised by the Ministry of Public Security was solved.

　　CCTV News:Recently (May 23), Hubei police reported that they had cracked a case of a large transnational network pornographic live broadcast platform supervised by the Ministry of Public Security. This criminal gang allows the so-called "anchors" recruited to engage in pornographic live broadcasts on illegal APP platforms, attracting netizens to pay to watch obscene pornographic live performances and illegally reap huge profits.

　　On April 30th this year, with the last two main suspects of this criminal gang being escorted back to China from abroad by the task force, a transnational cybercrime gang under the guise of online game companies was completely destroyed. In March 2018, the police of Netan Brigade of Macheng City Public Security Bureau in Hubei Province obtained an important clue in their daily work. Some people spread QR codes in multiple QQ groups. After scanning the codes, they can download an APP video live broadcast software. After opening this software, they can see pornographic live performances.

　　Police Cao Ji of Macheng Public Security Bureau Network Security Brigade: "This APP is pushed through the Internet chat tool. Netizens only need to scan the QR code and then register with their mobile phones to download this APP to complete the login."

　　In the investigation, the police found that after entering this live broadcast platform, a large number of pornographic anchors will appear on the page to perform obscene pornographic performances, and the picture is unsightly. To watch these performances, you need to buy "props" with different prices to reward the anchor.

　　Fan Zhiyong, a policeman of the Network Security Brigade of Macheng Public Security Bureau: "The way they reward female anchors is mainly to give gifts, which are divided into flowers, sports cars, rockets and other props. Cheap a few dollars, expensive up to more than 1000 yuan a gift. The more gifts they give female anchors, the bigger the scale of their performances. We made statistics. From November 2017 to March 2018, the number of registered members of this platform reached 900,000 in just five months, and the amount involved reached 16 million yuan. "

　　According to the police, the members of this pornographic live broadcast platform are very cunning. In order to escape the police attack. They rented servers in the mainland and arranged for personnel to go abroad to implement remote control.

　　Police Cao Ji of Macheng Public Security Bureau Network Security Brigade: "They rented the server in China and set up the studio abroad. Once our public security organs discovered and investigated this server, they would rent other servers to continue the operation of this platform. Moreover, according to our investigation, this criminal gang has repeatedly changed the IP address of the server and the name of the yellow-related live broadcast platform to escape the attack of the public security organs."

　　After grasping the criminal evidence of the gang, the police decided to close the net on the suspects of the gang. In mid-April 2018, with the assistance of police in Shenzhen, Zhejiang and other places, police in Macheng, Hubei were divided into multiple channels to arrest gang members. With the arrest of 18 suspects in various places, the gang’s pornographic live broadcast platform was seized. However, the police found that the two main suspects of the gang were still abroad.

　　At present, this mega-pornographic live broadcast platform has been completely destroyed, and all 20 gang members have been arrested. The case is still being further processed.
