Fifth Person Charged in Singapore over Alleged Fraud Conspiracy Linked to Nvidia Chips
Shi Bingzhe faces 41 charges as police widen a probe into alleged server exports tied to Nvidia chips and seize about $1 million in funds.
- On Friday, Singapore authorities charged 34-year-old Singaporean Shi Bingzhe with 41 offenses, including fraud related to the export of computer servers potentially containing Nvidia chips.
- Last year, officials launched an independent investigation following a tip-off about servers containing Nvidia chips being exported to Malaysia, potentially bypassing US export controls aimed at China.
- As director of Superphi and chief operating officer of NJ Global Financial, Shi allegedly consented to 41 transactions involving 917 servers from Aperia International between 2024 and 2025.
- Conviction could result in 10 years imprisonment or fines up to $500,000 per charge, with five individuals and six companies now prosecuted in the case.
- The Singapore Police Force continues investigating amid US scrutiny into whether Chinese firms like DeepSeek circumvented technology restrictions, as officials emphasize Singapore's reputation as a trusted business hub.
