Tajin Group: Guarantee Marketplace Vendor Involved in Phishing and Chinese Money Laundering Group
Recorded Future details Tajin Group, a Chinese-speaking vendor on Telegram guarantee marketplaces running phishing, carding, and money laundering operations targeting Chinese banks.
Insikt Group analyzed Tajin Group, a Chinese-speaking threat actor operating on Telegram-based guarantee marketplaces Dabai Guarantee and, since May 2026, Xinbi Guarantee. The group conducts phishing, payment card theft, and money laundering targeting mainland Chinese citizens and banks, testing stolen cards from twelve countries on platforms like CCAvenue and Geidea. Operators bought and sold at least 100 Telegram usernames and anonymous virtual numbers via Fragment Market to strengthen OPSEC, linking multiple usernames to single Telegram accounts. Recorded Future warns Tajin Group's TTPs are likely to be replicated by other vendors on Chinese-language guarantee marketplaces at global scale.

US disrupts Xinbi Guarantee marketplace fueling the cyber scam economy
US Treasury sanctions and DOJ seizures take down Xinbi Guarantee, a Telegram marketplace that processed $24B+ for cyber scams, freezing $52.8M.
The Treasury Department sanctioned the Chinese-language Telegram marketplace Xinbi Guarantee and two supporting firms, Anwen Technology (XinbiPay) and SafeW Technology, while the DOJ seized its Telegram channels and $52.8 million in USDT from 52 wallets. Blockchain intelligence firm Elliptic, which assisted the Secret Service, estimates Xinbi has processed at least $24 billion in transactions since 2022, making it the second-largest illicit online marketplace and a cornerstone of Southeast Asian cybercrime. Vendors sold money laundering, stolen personal data, deepfake technology, and other services for pig-butchering scams, with payments in Tether's USDT. The DOJ's Scam Center Task Force also dismantled 13 scam centers in Madagascar, arresting dozens of alleged leaders who were repatriated to China.
