In the second episode of our AML Conversations series with members of IRSCI, John Byrne sits down with Greg Monahan, IRS Supervisory Special Agent of the Cyber Crimes Unit and Chris Janczewski, IRS Special Agent in the Pittsburgh office. 

Together, they discuss the impact of cybercrime both in the US and abroad. Additionally, John and Chris go through two major cases, one on a group selling child pornography for Bitcoin, and another investigation that resulted in prosecution of a Chinese money launderer.
