🚨🚨 BREAKING: Cyprus Accountancy Regulator Sounds Alarm on Terror Financing via Crypto 🚨🚨
The Institute of Certified Public Accountants of Cyprus (ICPAC) has issued a stark warning to accounting professionals: be vigilant in detecting and preventing terror financing through cryptocurrencies! 💸
ICPAC identified five methods terrorists use to transfer funds, including crypto. They urge accountants to report suspicious activities, such as anonymous cross-border transfers, crowdfunding, and charitable donations. Failure to report is an offense! 🚨
This alert comes as Palestinian militant groups, including Hamas, have been using small amounts of crypto for funding. However, blockchain analytics firm Elliptic found no evidence of large-scale crypto fundraising. 🤔
The regulator emphasizes the crucial role accounting professionals play in preventing terror financing. They must actively monitor and report suspicious activities to prevent the misuse of cryptocurrencies. 💪
