A new Whale Hunting investigation has found that Sam Altman's controversial AI company, Tools for Humanity, unwittingly became entangled with a criminal "dirty money" network tied to Chinese scam centers in Cambodia. The network, which has links to the scandal-plagued crypto exchange KuCoin, appears to have used the partnership with Altman and his Worldcoin cryptocurrency to legitimize its operations in Thailand and gain a veneer of credibility. This case exposes a new and more dangerous risk for a project already criticized for its data privacy and ethical issues: the threat of a prominent tech company becoming an unwitting pawn for organized crime seeking to enter the mainstream.

This is the latest installment of our multi-part series on a criminal network that spans from scam centers in Cambodia to New York penthouses, $100 million super yachts, and private jets. This deep reporting requires significant resources: document analysis across multiple jurisdictions, source development, and months of investigative work. We're making this series free for anyone who signs up with email, but we need your support to continue exposing these hidden empires of power and wealth.
