Previously, on October 11, the police received a report from a resident in Da Nang about being scammed out of more than 350 million VND by an unknown person through an application on social networks Facebook, Zalo, Telegram with the name "Single Woman".
Through investigation, the police identified the suspect as Khang and arrested him when he had just returned home from Cambodia in Chau Thanh district, An Giang province. The suspect was then extradited to Da Nang for investigation.
At the police station, Khang confessed that around June, he went to Cambodia to work for a company specializing in fraud and property appropriation on the internet (name and address unknown).
This company gave Khang 2 social network accounts on Facebook and Zalo, both named "Nguyen Thi Kieu Trang", to lure men who were "crazy about strange things" into love conversations, thereby enticing them to participate in business investments to appropriate property.
To cover up his crimes, Khang used multiple bank accounts as well as methods to erase traces of information on social networks.
The Criminal Police Department of Da Nang Police is looking for victims of similar fraud to investigate and clarify.
