More than 30 Chinese people arrested for scamming Japanese from Vietnam!

On April 29, the Ho Chi Minh City police in Vietnam, in collaboration with multiple departments, dismantled an international online fraud syndicate, formally charging 31 suspects. The police discovered the criminal activities of the gang in a three-story building in Phu Long B ward of Ho Chi Minh City, which was disguised as a convenience store.

The gang lured Japanese individuals through social media, using highly discounted products as bait. They deceived victims into making transactions on e-commerce platforms, demanding payments in cryptocurrencies or Japanese yen. After receiving the payments, the gang would cut off contact. Additionally, the gang misled victims into investing in fictitious digital cryptocurrency projects, promising high returns. Once the victims transferred the money, they were blocked.

The case is still under further investigation.
