OFAC sanctions Sinaloa-linked operators and Cambodian scam network
Screening teams must block newly listed drug and cyber-linked parties immediately
Change
OFAC added individuals and entities tied to the Sinaloa cartel and Kok An's Cambodian scam-center networks to the SDN List, plus Cyber-related General Licence 2.
Why it matters
Designations span individuals, logistics firms, chemicals traders, casinos, hotels, real-estate companies, utilities and financial institutions. GL 2 narrowly authorises drinking-water transactions involving the designated Anco Water Supply Co.
Implications
- — Sanctions screening teams must update SDN lists with new names, aliases and identifiers immediately — missed matches create breach risk
- — Banks and payments teams must block or reject transactions involving designated parties — processing creates OFAC exposure
- — Trade finance and treasury teams must suspend dealings with linked entities — ongoing exposure risks penalties
