Greg Monahan & Chris Janczewski: IRSCI on Cybercrime

In the second episode of our AML Conversations series with members of IRSCI, John Byrne sits down with Greg Monahan, IRS Supervisory Special Agent of the Cyber Crimes Unit and Chris Janczewski, IRS Special Agent in the Pittsburgh office.  Together, they discuss the impact of cybercrime both in the US and abroad. Additionally, John and Chris go through two major cases, one on a group selling child pornography for Bitcoin, and another investigation that resulted in prosecution of a Chinese money launderer. These agents also offer “red flag indicators” for financial institutions to spot cyber threats, discuss the importance of IRS partnering with other agencies, and working with the private sector.
