Brazilian prosecutors have broken up a massive $190 million money laundering ring tied to the notorious Primeiro Comando da Capital (PCC) crime syndicate. The scheme was linked to a Chinese-run online sales network called "Knup Brasil," which sold imported consumer electronics such as mobile phone chargers and electronic scales across Brazil at low prices. Customers ordered products via the platform but had to pay through Brazil’s instant payment system, Pix, to various companies without real business operations. Invoices were issued with artificially low prices by third-party firms. Investigators said this created a deliberate mismatch between the declared income and the actual money flow. Authorities say the ring concealed revenue, evaded taxes, and laundered drug money using this network. The police in São Paulo exposed the complex scheme that allowed the PCC syndicate to mask billions in illegal earnings through fake sales and payments.
