A "super" fraud gang in Ho Chi Minh City has just been arrested by the Ho Chi Minh City Police and the City Police. Thu Duc arrested. It is known that this group of subjects has successfully performed 7 different cases, appropriating more than 50 million VND.

Recently, the Criminal Police Department - Ho Chi Minh City Police said that it had just cooperated with Thu Duc City Police to successfully dismantle a "super" fraud gang on the street, causing inter-district crimes.

The police agency is holding a group of 5 suspects including: Ho Thi Ngoc Hoa (67 years old, native of Binh Phuoc, living in Binh Chanh), Nguyen Thi Ha (58 years old), Cao Van Giau (60 years old), Nguyen Thanh Hoang (48 years old) and Tran Trung Hieu Hoa (39 years old, living in District 8) to serve the investigation.

According to initial information, the leader was identified as Tran Trung Hieu Hoa. The group of subjects carried out the fraud by staging a fake situation, in which Thanh Hoang and Van Giau played the role of gold shop owners and production facility owners.

Subject Hoa plays the role of a chemical trader, always carrying gems and diamond rings in person; Nguyen Thi Ha takes on the supporting role of a local who accidentally passed by, knowing the incident, asked "prey" to contribute money, buy gold, exchange diamonds for a commission...

It is known that on July 20, a group of fraudsters has successfully performed a case at Provincial Road 43, Binh Chieu Ward, Thu Duc City. However, the project committee has put away the net and successfully captured the whole group of 5 people as mentioned above.

According to the testimonies of the target group, the incident happened as follows: on the morning of July 20, Hieu Hoa drove his car on the roads to look for women wearing gold, chosen as a target. When they saw Ms. X. wearing a 24k gold bracelet, the two signaled their accomplices to act.

In the role of a soap seller, Ngoc Hoa approached Ms. X., started a conversation to make her stop. At this time, an accomplice in the group, Thi Ha, played the role of a local, and stopped by to chat.

Ngoc Hoa pretended to ask Thi Ha, and Ms. X. to see if there were any CHs near this area who wanted to import a large amount of shampoo. Thi Ha quickly pointed out the place with the condition that if the goods were sold, Ngoc Hoa had to give Ha and Ms. X. 10 bottles of shampoo each.

Suddenly seeing a benefit, Ms. X. immediately followed without the slightest doubt. Continuing her "role", Ngoc Hoa suddenly revealed to the two women that she had two 5.4-mm diamonds that she wanted to sell and asked Thi Ha to find a buyer. If sold, Ngoc Hoa will give Ha and Ms. X. commission money, each person will get 0.5 gold thread.

Before that, Hieu Hoa had already chosen a waiting place and played the role of a person who wanted to import a large amount of shampoo. According to the script, Thi Ha drove Ngoc Hoa, along with Ms. X. to meet Hieu Hoa. Of course, this fake boss agreed to the request to import shampoo from the soap seller - Ngoc Hoa.

Also here, Thi Ha - Ngoc Hoa pretended to find a diamond buyer. Hieu Hoa said that he is knowledgeable about gold and precious stones, so he will buy two diamonds at the price of 3 gold bars.

Ngoc Hoa was hesitant to sell, so Hieu Hoa left and told her to call if she wanted to sell. Then, pretending to have thought carefully, Ngoc Hoa decided to sell diamonds. Thi Ha said she would bring diamonds with Ms. X. to meet Hieu Hoa.

At this time, Ngoc Hoa said that her property was too large, if the two women took it away, they must have something valuable to give Hoa to believe. Thi Ha did not hesitate to immediately remove the ring, the gold ring she was wearing, and gave it to Ngoc Hoa. Ms. X. has no money, only a gold bracelet is on her hand, but it is very difficult to remove. Seeing that, Ngoc Hoa took the scissors from the shampoo box and said: "I have scissors available, I can cut them out"...

Having obtained Ms. X's property, Hoa gave her a box with 2 white stones inside, which is also a fake plastic. After completing the appropriation of Ms. X's property, Hoa and Ha quickly distracted and escaped.

Soon after, this group brought the gold bangle to a gold shop in District 8 for sale, but was followed and arrested by the scout force.

Expanding the investigation, the special team arrested two other subjects in the gang, Cao Van Giau and Nguyen Thanh Hoang.

At the Public Security Agency, the group of subjects simultaneously confessed that from July 12 to July 20, they had successfully carried out 7 fraud cases in many districts such as Binh Tan, Binh Chanh, Thu Duc City, most of which appropriated gold jewelry and cash.

In all 7 scams, they used "decoys" of fake gold and plastic beads and diamonds. Due to the ability to make fakes today is quite sophisticated, so the fakes are also golden, sparkling like gold, real gems and many people thought they were real.

According to the Public Security Agency, it is possible that many other victims have fallen into the trap of a group of scammers led by Hieu Hoa.
