Nguyen Nhat Huy was arrested by Hue City Police after being on the run and participating in an online fraud ring in Cambodia.

Increasingly sophisticated

In early March, female student NTT (3rd year of the University of Education, Hue University) was scammed out of 65 million VND by a bad guy. This student received a phone call from a strange number, claiming to be from the police and threatening her with content related to a money laundering ring. Due to threats and psychological manipulation, T. transferred 65 million VND to the account provided by the scammer phone number. After discovering that she had been scammed, T. reported to the school and was instructed to go to the police station to report.

According to female student T., although she knew about this scam online, she was surprised and passive, leading to confusion and anxiety and followed the scammer's instructions.
