Eradication of Illegal Distribution by the 28th

Sacheon City in Gyeongnam Province will conduct a comprehensive crackdown on the illegal distribution of the local love gift certificate, Sacheon Sarang Gift Certificate, until the 28th.

This crackdown is being carried out in accordance with the government's plan for a nationwide crackdown on the illegal distribution of local love gift certificates, aimed at establishing a sound distribution order for the local love gift certificates.

Sacheon City Hall, Gyeongnam.

The main crackdown targets include ▲receiving or exchanging gift certificates without selling goods or providing services (so-called 'Kkang') ▲inducing false payments by mobilizing family or acquaintances and receiving unfair profits ▲making payments with gift certificates at one's own franchise store.

Additionally, ▲exchanging gift certificates for amounts exceeding actual sales ▲refusing gift certificate payments or treating gift certificate holders unfairly ▲operating businesses restricted from franchise registration are also subject to crackdown.

If caught during the crackdown, offenders will face on-site guidance, cancellation of franchise registration, recovery of unfair profits, or fines up to 20 million KRW. In cases of serious illegal distribution, the matter will be referred to investigative authorities.

A city official stated, "We will do our best to create a fair and transparent distribution order through real-time monitoring using the Korea Minting and Security Printing Corporation's abnormal transaction detection system."

If illegal distribution related to the Sacheon Sarang Gift Certificate is suspected or witnessed on-site, reports can be made to the Illegal Distribution Reporting Center operated by the Sacheon City Local Economy Division.
