INTERPOL Operation Jackal IV: Dismantling Black Axe and West African Cybercrime Infrastructure
Operation Jackal IV was a coordinated law enforcement action spanning 22 countries to neutralize the financial infrastructure of West African syndicates, primarily the Black Axe group. The operation targeted the "money laundering machine" utilizing a combination of shell companies, digital wallets, and mule accounts to obfuscate funds derived from sextortion and large-scale financial fraud. By analyzing cryptocurrency laundering pathways and C2 communication patterns, INTERPOL and partner agencies disrupted the multi-continental financial flows necessary for these syndicates to operate, resulting in 58 arrests and the identification of 263 suspects.
