What are Mule accounts and rented accounts ?
Mule Accounts:
Rented Accounts:
Key Differences:
Awareness: Mule account holders can be unknowing participants, while rented account holders are generally aware that they’re renting out their account.
Operation: Mule accounts are typically controlled by a third party after recruiting the account holder, while rented accounts are provided intentionally for temporary use by the account holder.
Example:
Mule Account: A person responds to a job ad offering easy income for transferring funds, unaware that the money originates from phishing scams.
Rented Account: An individual is approached with an offer to let someone use their account in exchange for a monthly fee. They allow access, knowing that the third party will be using it for unknown purposes.
Both types are frequently flagged by banks for potential money laundering and fraud, as they’re used to disguise the movement of funds in criminal schemes.
