The client approached Ongang Law Firm. ■ Case Issues The key issues in this case were twofold: first, the scope and limits of the delegation of account management, and second, whether the defendants' actions constituted embezzlement.

Case Summary The client was accused of using another person's identity to obtain medical care and prescription drugs while seeking psychiatric treatment. Over the course of several months, the client was found to have used another person's social security number to receive medical treatment and prescribed psychotropic medications, and to have fraudulently received insurance benefits from the National Health Insurance Service. The client was deeply troubled when the investigation began and approached Ongang Law Firm. ■ Case Issues The main issues in this case were threefold: first, the client's medical condition and the specificity of his motive for committing the crime; second, sentence adjustment in a situation where multiple crimes were contested; and third, effective guidance to prevent recidivism. In particular, due to the nature of the crime involving psychotropic drugs, the possibility of a prison sentence could not be ruled out, so a therapeutic approach was necessary.

The loan broker approached the client, claiming that he had a "good loan product with good conditions" and that he could "refinance the loan," and falsely claimed that a deposit and various fees were required to proceed with the loan. The client trusted the loan broker and sent the requested amount, but the perpetrator continued to demand additional fees, resulting in tens of millions of won in damages. The client later realized that there were many other victims who had been victimized by similar schemes, and sought our help to recover damages. ■ Case Issues The main issue in this case was whether the perpetrator's crime was a simple fraud or a crime of fraud under the Special Fraud Act. In particular, it was important to establish whether the crime of comprehensive fraud was established because the perpetrator used the same method to commit the crime against multiple victims. It was also important to prove that the return of money to some victims was a means of deception. In calculating the amount of damages, it was also important to show that each victim
