How the Tech Industry Washes Money for the World’s Deadliest Crooks

For as long as people have been stealing money, there has been an industry ready to wash it. But what happened when our economy went digital? How does the global underworld wash its dirty money in the Internet age?

Join investigative journalist, Geoff White, as he reveals how organised crooks have joined forces with the world’s most sophisticated cybercriminals. The result: a vast virtual money-laundering machine too intelligent for most authorities to crack.
Geoff White will shows how thieves are uniting to successfully get away with the most atrocious crimes on an unprecedented scale, through a series of jaw-dropping cases and interviews with insiders at all levels of the system,

Geoff follows the money from the outrageous luxury of Dubai hotels to sleepy backwaters of coastal Ireland, from the backstreets of Nigeria to the secretive zones of North Korea, to investigate this new cyber supercartel, as he uncovers the extraordinary true story of hi-tech laundering – and exposes its terrible human cost.
