[English Translations for Global Clients - Success Case]

1. Case Overview

The client, represented by Taelim Law Firm, was the CEO of a specialized telecommunications business engaged in bulk text message distribution.

An unidentified voice phishing organization used the client’s messaging service to send a large number of fraudulent loan advertisements, which led to several victims being defrauded.

As a result, the investigative authorities launched a criminal investigation against the client on suspicion of aiding and abetting fraud.

2. Taelim’s Assistance

In this case, the client’s system was technically structured so that individual message content could not be reviewed prior to transmission — making it impossible for the client to recognize the illegal nature of the messages beforehand.

Taelim’s attorneys emphasized these systemic limitations, while also proving that the client had consistently taken immediate post-incident actions, such as suspending user accounts whenever illegal spam was reported.

They further established, through system operation logs and internal records, that the client had no intent or knowledge to assist or participate in the fraudulent acts.

During the investigation, Taelim provided a comprehensive technical explanation of the message transmission process to the authorities, demonstrating the absence of criminal liability on the part of the client.

3. Case Outcome

The prosecution determined that there was insufficient evidence to prove that the client had directly transmitted or knowingly assisted in sending the fraudulent messages.

Accordingly, the case was dismissed for lack of evidence, and the client was cleared of all charges.

4. Significance of the Judgment

This case established an important legal precedent clarifying that operators of bulk messaging or telecommunications systems are not automatically criminally liable for illegal activities carried out by third parties using their platforms.

The court recognized both the technical limitations that made message pre-screening impossible and the prompt remedial actions taken by the client upon receiving spam or abuse reports.

These factors were key in determining the client’s lack of intent and due diligence compliance.

This decision provides valuable guidance for platform operators and tech-based service providers who may face similar allegations due to third-party misuse.

Through objective, evidence-based defense and rational legal reasoning, Taelim Law Firm successfully secured a non-prosecution decision and helped define the scope of criminal liability for technology-driven businesses.

The case underscores the importance of balancing technical feasibility, compliance efforts, and fair legal interpretation in modern digital service operations.
