NASCUS is pleased to offer the next session in our complimentary member webinar series, featuring Noel Thomas, Founder & CEO of Dark Watch.
This session takes a real-world look at the fight against human trafficking, connecting what happens in the field with the financial activity that can help uncover broader criminal networks.
Attendees will explore how illicit proceeds move through organized crime operations, focusing on financial patterns associated with illicit massage businesses. The session will highlight practical indicators, investigative approaches, and financial behaviors that may help credit unions and regulators better identify, investigate, and report suspicious activity tied to human trafficking.
Attendance is free as a NASCUS member benefit. This webinar will be recorded.
