The US Treasury Department has announced sanctions against three Chinese nationals and three Thai companies for their involvement in a cybercrime network linked to COVID-related fraud and bomb threats. This network, according to the ministry, caused the government significant financial losses, costing billions of dollars.

Sanctions were also imposed on individuals and companies based in Thailand for their activities related to the 911 S5 botnet. This botnet, as stated by the Ministry of Finance, hijacked computers and used them to track cybercriminals, directing its activities to victims' computers rather than to the attackers' devices.
