  "account": "In a parking lot near a sports hall in Moss, a 36-year-old man agreed to meet with a seller of two clocks. Instead, he encountered a man with a gun. Within ten seconds, nine bullets were fired. The 36-year-old was shot in the back, chest, hand, and knee. The injuries were considered life-threatening, but he survived. The shooting, which occurred in November 2023, is being linked by police to an altercation between the Ismail Abdo and Foxtrot-led Rawa Majid gangs, better known as \"Iceland Goat\" and \"The Kurdish Revenant.\" This event has been described as the first known shootout between Swedish criminal networks on Norwegian soil. Over the next seven months, four more people were arrested in the case. One of them went by the alias \"Real Cash Out\" on the encrypted messaging service Signal, meaning \"Real Cash Out\" in Norwegian. The Swedish police believe he is a type of criminal that is becoming increasingly important in violent gangs. \"Real Cash Out\" is the alias of a now 35-year-old man from Helsingborg, Sweden. On social media, he openly expresses his opinions about the police and shares pictures of himself in a swimming pool, dressed in Hugo Boss and Gucci suits. In the previous year, the man and three co-conspirators were sentenced in Moss District Court for attempted murder and participation in attempted murder, as well as the mafioparagraf. The trial began on Monday at Borgarting District Court. In the court, the 35-year-old said that money laundering from fraud has been a source of income for him since he became an illegal worker several years ago. Through money laundering, he came into contact with others who engaged in the same activities. In Sweden, he was sentenced for seven cases of money laundering from fraudulent funds since 2018, including: In both convictions, it is revealed that the 35-year-old received money from the fraudsters' accounts, either directly or through a middleman. The money was then quickly transferred to other people's and his own accounts in various banks or as payment abroad. Emphasis is placed on the fact that this was done to hide the fact that the money originated from criminal activity. - He is a person who has had a long history with fraud and fraudulent activity long before this, says investigator Stefan Larsson of the National Operational Unit (NOA), which oversees Kripos in Norway. Both in Norway and Sweden, economic crime has become an increasingly larger part of gang earnings. Sunday, E24 reported on a criminal network operating across national borders. The Swedish investigator says violent gangs are always looking for people who can generate money, including through fraud and money laundering. This is how the criminals make money and help each other.",
