U40 man pretends to be a schoolgirl, scamming rich "boyfriend" out of nearly 6 billion VND, a trick as sophisticated as a Hollywood movie

The case of a man pretending to be a "new female graduate" who easily defrauded a man of nearly 6 billion VND in Ca Mau is causing a stir in public opinion. After being arrested, the man's deception was exposed, causing everyone to fall back.

According to Tuoi Tre newspaper, on October 11, the Criminal Police Department of Ca Mau Province Police said they were temporarily detaining criminal Lam Hoang Ngan (39 years old, residing in Tra Cu district, Tra Vinh province) to investigate f.raud. island to appropriate property.

During the process of working with the police, Ngan admitted that she pretended to be a beautiful woman to text the man romantically, with the main purpose being to defraud him of m.oney. The man said the two often sent messages through social networks, Ngan avoided calling to avoid being discovered.

Sources from VnExpress, Ngan does not have a stable career but always claims to be in the real estate business. He created a social network account, took a profile picture of a beautiful g.irl, and joined chat groups looking for people to scam. In early April, Ngan became friends with Mr. Khang in Ca Mau City.

After a period of intimate texting, Ngan said she needed help, Mr. Khang agreed to transfer m.oney to the "beauty" and arranged to go to the motel. However, after many appointments but not being able to meet the g.irl, he canceled his friendship.

Ngan searched for information, knew that Mr. Khang was a tycoon, so he bought a junk sim card, created an account with Phuong Hang (name of Ngan's friend) and befriended this man, introducing himself as a recently graduated student, living in Tan Xuyen ward, Ca Mau City.

Some time later, when Mr. Khang expressed his feelings, Ngan said his family was well off but because he had just graduated from school, he lacked m.oney to buy a car. The tycoon agreed to help, Ngan borrowed the bank account of her friend Nguyen Thi Phuong Hang so he could transfer a total of 17 times with an amount of nearly 3 billion VND.

After that, Ngan made up a story about his brother committing s.uicide due to business losses, debt to the gangsters, and needing m.oney to pay the debt. Mr. Khang continued to transfer more than 220 million VND to another friend of Ngan's account.

Using the above trick, Ngan said he was working at a project and needed to transfer m.oney but his account was corrupted, so he asked Mr. Khang to transfer it to an account named Nguyen Thanh Liem. The tycoon continued to transfer 16 times to his "lover" with an amount of more than 2.6 billion VND.

After that, Ngan started creating a fake story, saying that her brother committed s.uicide because of business losses and debt with gangsters, needing m.oney to pay off debt. Khang continued to transfer m.oney to the account of another friend of Ngan's for more than 220 million VND.

Using similar tricks, Ngan claimed to be working on a project and needed to transfer m.oney, but her account had errors. And then, Ngan asked Mr. Khang to transfer m.oney to the account of a person named Nguyen Thanh Liem. Mr. Khang continued to transfer m.oney 16 more times to his "lover" online for a total of more than 2.6 billion VND.

When Mr. Khang offered to return the m.oney, Ngan lied that she had sold a piece of land and was on her way back to Ca Mau to pay him. However, on the way, she received news that her parents were attacked by a gang and needed emergency treatment, so she had to turn back. When Mr. Khang asked for m.oney immediately, Ngan said "because it was late and no one could transfer the m.oney, the m.oney was sent to her aunt's house in Soc Trang."

Every time Mr. Khang asked for m.oney, Ngan always gave fake reasons like he was traveling to China, the m.oney was in the safe and couldn't be opened, her father had to have an emergency surgery and passed away. After that, Ngan made up a story that he was in the process of transferring a house for 9.8 billion VND and would repay Mr. Khang's debt after receiving the m.oney. This man also went online to upload images related to real estate and changed the owner's name to Phuong Hang, then sent them to Mr. Khang to see.

After more than 2 months, Ngan called Khang directly, pretending to be "lawyer Trung" who was helping Hang carry out procedures and paperwork related to selling the house and asked him to wait longer. In mid-June, Mr. Khang became suspicious when Ngan confessed that there were no people named Liem and Hang and then fled. Mr. Khang reported the incident to the police.

According to information from the investigation team, the victim transferred m.oney a total of 36 times, with a total amount of nearly 5.7 billion VND, to three accounts of Hang, Trung and Liem. The investigation agency is conducting an extensive investigation into this incident.
