Island Investigations on Club Drugs Last month, a drug trafficking and distribution network involved in selling drugs such as Ecstasy and Ketamine in karaoke bars and foreigner-exclusive clubs in South (경상) Gyeongsang Province was apprehended by the Coast Guard. Amidst a series of drug crimes occurring in clubs and bars nationwide, a similar drug offender has been arrested in Jeju as well. A man in his 30s, identified as Mr. A, who was formerly affiliated with a club, has been arrested last month on suspicion of possessing dozens of Ecstasy pills and consuming them. Jeju District Prosecutor's Office has indicted Mr. A on charges of drug possession and consumption, and they have also announced that they are conducting supplementary investigations into individuals who were involved in drug consumption with him. Ecstasy, a new type of drug, is known as a "club drug" as it is primarily consumed by young people. It has a hallucinogenic effect that is three times stronger than that of methamphetamine. INTERVIEW Jo Gwang-won / Jeju Office, Korean Society of Drug Abuse Ecstasy is known to produce hallucinogenic effects that can induce a significant elevation in mood. It is indeed a drug that is commonly used by young people. The Jeju Provincial Police Agency has stated that this case is unrelated to clubs, and it is difficult to disclose specific details regarding the case, including the specific charges, as the investigation is still ongoing. According to the Korea Customs Service, the amount of newly identified drugs seized last year was 260 kg, which is more than a tenfold increase compared to two years ago. Among them, the quantity of Ecstasy seizures increased by seven times during the same period. With the recent arrest of an Ecstasy drug offender in Jeju, there is growing interest in whether the crimes are linked to related industries, as seen in nationwide cases, rather than being isolated incidents of individual crimes. The investigation results regarding any potential spread of crime to associated sectors have garnered significant attention. 제주에도 클럽 마약?…경찰 수사 확대 지난 달 경남에 있는 노래주점과 외국인 전용 클럽 등에서 엑스터시와 케타민 등 마약류를 판매한 판매책과 유통 조직이 해경에 검거됐습니다. 전국적으로 클럽이나 술집에서 마약 범죄가 잇따르는 가운데 제주에서도 유사 마약 사범이 검거됐습니다. 모 클럽 관계자였던 30대 A 씨가 지난 달 엑스터시 수십 정을 소지하고 투약한 혐의로 구속됐습니다. 제주지검은 A 씨를 마약류 소지와 투약 혐의로 구속 기소했고 함께 투약한 이들에 대해서도 보완 수사를 진행하고 있다고 밝혔습니다. 엑스터시는 필로폰보다 환각 작용이 3배나 큰 신종 마약류로 젊은 층이 주로 투약하면서 일명 클럽용 마약으로도 알려졌습니다. <인터뷰 : 고광언/ 한국마약범죄학회 제주지회장> 엑스터시를 투약하면 환각작용을 일으켜서 기분이 아주 상승되는 효과를 누리는 마약으로 알려지고 있습니다. 젊은 사람들이 많이 이용하는 마약으로 보면 되겠습니다. 제주경찰청은 이번 사건은 클럽과는 무관하다면서도 구체적인 혐의점 등은 수사가 진행 중이여서 밝히기 어렵다고 전했습니다. 지난해 관세청이 적발한 신종 마약류는 260kg으로 2년 전보다 10배 이상 급증했습니다. 이 가운데 엑스터시 적발 물량은 같은 기간 7배나 늘었습니다. 제주에서도 엑스터시 마약 사범이 검거된 가운데 개인의 단순 범죄가 아닌 전국 사례처럼 연관 업종으로 범죄가 퍼졌을지 수사 결과에 관심이 모아지고 있습니다.

  • Don’t Fall for Family Emergency Scams
  • Some scammers pose as relatives or friends, sending messages to urge you to wire money immediately. They say they need cash to help with an emergency. Their goal is to trick you into sending money before you realize it’s a scam. Joseph Kim has more. Report A text message sent from an unknown number. It says “Mom, my cellphone isn’t working, please reply to this text message”. This is a new tactic for text message phishing. Scammers send fake messages impersonating relatives or friends to trick victims into giving them their personal information or money. If a text reply is sent to the fraudulent message, another text message is quickly sent that urges the victim to wire money immediately saying the cellphone is out of order. Scammers avoid talking directly on the phone. Victims, mostly in their fifties and sixties who have children lost their money to such a scam. According to the Financial Supervisory Service, the total damage from phone scams reached 235.3 billion won last year. It decreased by 65 percent compared with the previous year. Meanwhile, damage from text scams increased 10.8 percent, accounting for 15.9 percent of total damage from phone scams. Voice phishing where a scammer directly calls the victim and pretends to be a bank teller or a prosecutor has decreased, while text scams where a scammer impersonates relatives have increased. In Jeju, not a few victims fall for fraud text messages in which a scammer impersonates their child and urges victims to send a photo of the ID card and a credit card. The scammer says money is immediately needed to repair cell phone screens. Police and financial authorities advise that if someone sends a message claiming to be a family member or a friend desperate for money, verify the person’s identity. And if a text message sender avoids a direct phone call, it could be a text scammer. As phone-based scams are evolving, phone users are advised to be mindful of mobile phone fraud, especially the new text messaging scam that has been making its way around the country.
