Hun To

Hun To is a Cambodian businessman. He is a cousin of Prime Minister Hun Manet and a nephew of former prime minister Hun Sen. Australian media have also linked him to a criminal-intelligence investigation into heroin trafficking and alleged money laundering targeting Australia, which he denied. ABC News said Elliptic found listings on Huione Guarantee for money laundering services and “detention equipment”, alongside other services associated with scam operations.

In May 2025, the U.S. Treasury's Financial Crimes Enforcement Network issued a finding identifying Huione Group as a “primary money laundering concern” and proposed measures intended to restrict its access to the U.S. financial system, citing risks linked to cyber heists and “pig butchering” scams. In 2025, Telegram said it had blocked Huione Guarantee and another large Chinese-language marketplace; Elliptic estimated the two services had handled more than US$35 billion in transactions since 2021.

Thailand's cybercrime police have publicly said they traced financial flows from online gambling and call-centre scams to Huione Group and were examining a potential connection to a nephew of Hun Sen; the police commissioner declined to comment when asked whether the company was owned by Hun To.

Scam compounds, corporate registrations and politically connected networks An Al Jazeera investigation into scam-compound abuses in Cambodia stated that corporate registrations listed Hun To as a director of multiple Heng He companies connected to the compound it examined.

A 2025 report by Humanity Research Consultancy on Cambodia's trafficking-linked cybercrime economy identified Hun To as a director of Huione Group and said companies under the Heng He Group listed him as a director; the report also discussed politically connected investment networks including Prince Group Holdings.

Australia Operation Illipango investigation Operation Illipango, an Australian Crime Commission inquiry, investigated the shipment of heroin to Australia from Cambodia concealed in loads of timber and related allegations of money laundering, according to Australian media reporting published in 2012.
