On 01-Oct-2022, the following matters are allocated to George:

2.UNO's newly upgraded AML-CTF software Siebel-10 can cross check the transaction references and has identified a student account with multiple credits stating ".5 meth", ".1 coca", "50 patches" and "10 ice" as suspicious. George investigates the account particulars and identifies that:

i.the credits are from other bank accounts.

ii.the average monthly remittances are less than $100.

3.The automated report has red flagged Mr. John's account for multiple transfer of small amounts to South Asia. George's investigations reveal the following:

i.John has recently purchased a new VPN facilitating adult website "olyfans".

ii.John's KYC documents do not show any relation/work connection to South Asia.

Please analyse the above mentioned scenarios and decide what action must be taken by UNO bank/George to comply with the statutory obligations under Anti-money Laundering and Counter-terrorism Financing Act, 2006 (Cth).
