Thailand's Deputy Finance Minister resigned after we revealed his wife received $3M from a criminal network. Here are the 84 pages of documents that prove everything.

Welcome to Whale Hunting, where we follow the money from Southeast Asian scam centers to Manhattan penthouses, exposing the criminal networks that cost Americans billions each year.

On Monday, we revealed that Thailand's Deputy Finance Minister Vorapak Tanyawong was appointed to investigate the same criminal network that paid his wife $2.94 million in cryptocurrency. By Tuesday afternoon, he had resigned.

Today, we're publishing the documents that forced his resignation—and revealing something even more damning: The buyer wasn't just any shell company. It was directed by Li Hang, a senior executive of KuCoin, the cryptocurrency exchange that pled guilty to criminal money laundering charges just 11 days before the purchase.

The 84-page Singapore corporate filings, verified by DocuSign and filed with regulators, show exactly how $24 million in criminal proceeds moved through cryptocurrency wallets, into the hands of two wives—one married to a Thai minister, the other to South African criminal Benjamin Mauerberger—and ultimately gave a convicted money launderer control of a Thai financial institution.

This is the documentary evidence. Every signature. Every wallet address. Every blockchain transaction. We're publishing it all.
