More than 700 million pieces of information have been leaked, Zhejiang judged a case of infringement of citizen’s information.
Recently, the Songyang County People's Court in Zhejiang Province made a landmark ruling in a case involving the illegal infringement of citizens' personal information. The case revealed that over 700 million pieces of personal data were leaked, and more than 80 million records were sold on the black market. This massive breach highlighted the growing threat of cybercrime and the urgent need for stronger data protection measures.
In March 2016, the Songyang County Public Security Bureau received multiple reports of fraud cases where scammers used the "leader guessing who I am" method to impersonate senior officials and defraud victims. After combining the cases, authorities discovered a total of 28 related incidents across Lishui City. Following a month-long investigation, police arrested 11 suspects and seized 167,000 pieces of sensitive personal data from across the country, with the case involving over 1.17 million yuan.
The sheer volume and accuracy of the stolen information alarmed local law enforcement, who suspected the involvement of an organized criminal network behind the scenes. Through extensive investigations, including tracing financial transactions, they uncovered a complex web of individuals involved in illegally selling personal data online. Among them was Liao Moubin from Jiangxi, who traded information such as pregnancy records, bank details, and car ownership data. His accomplices included Wang Quanquan from Fujian, Cheng Long from Hebei, and other groups led by Chen Mouliang, Wang Mouhui, Du Mou, and He Mouyao. These groups operated through secret QQ chat groups, exchanging and selling personal data for profit.
Chen Mouliang, in particular, was found to have used disguised packages to send dozens of bank cards to Taiwan. Thanks to the efforts of the police, 22 cards were intercepted before they could be delivered. In October 2016, the public security agency conducted a major operation, arresting all suspects and seizing over 200 million personal records and more than 200 sets of bank cards.
The court determined that the source of the data used in the crimes came primarily from defendant Wang Mouhui and suspect Ku, who were dealt with separately. In February 2016, Wang Mouhui hacked into a government medical service system and sold some of the personal data stored there. In September 2016, Ku targeted a provincial poverty alleviation website, stealing administrative login credentials and downloading large amounts of citizen data for resale. He later sold one of his accounts to Chen Mouliang, who then distributed the information to fraud groups in Taiwan and elsewhere.
After analyzing the data, the court found that defendants Wang Mouhui, Cheng Moulong, Liao Moubin, Du Mou, Wang Mouquan, Chen Mouliang, and He Mouyao obtained personal information through various means—including search, exchange, and purchase—in over 50,000 cases, which were deemed particularly severe. Chen Mouliang was also found to have acquired 186 credit cards through fraudulent methods, making his crime especially grave.
Considering all the circumstances, the court sentenced Chen Mouliang to five years and six months in prison, along with a fine of 30,000 yuan, for violating the laws on personal information protection and credit card management. Wang Mouhui, Cheng Moulong, Liao Moubin, Du Mou, and Wang Mouquan received sentences ranging from three years and four months to five years, with fines between 60,000 and 400,000 yuan. He Mouyao was given a three-year suspended sentence and fined 50,000 yuan.
