Mother holding child livestreaming crying for help at hospital: New developments, reversal?

Recently, the online community was abuzz with a video of a mother livestreaming her crying baby in front of the hospital gate because she lost all her money. It was later "exposed" as a fake to scam money, and immediately after that, this woman was invited to the office to work.

According to Nguoi Lao Dong newspaper, recently, the online community shared a clip of a woman from Dak Lak saying that she was staged to have her pocket stolen for 9.5 million VND in front of Children's Hospital 2 (District 1, Ho Chi Minh City). After that, she called for financial support.

In the video, the woman said that at around 4:30 a.m. on February 10, she took her child from her hometown to the hospital for a medical examination. While Mrs. X. was waiting for a car outside the hospital gate, two people came to ask for directions and showed her her phone for her to look at for a while. She didn't know anything anymore, and the two people picked her pocket, losing all the 9,500,000 VND she had saved for her child's medical examination. This video has received the attention of social media users. Many benefactors have tried to contact her to help and support money for Mrs. X. and her child.

Also according to Dan Tri newspaper, the results of extracting the hospital's camera and surrounding businesses on February 10 showed that the information the woman shared on social media was false. Accordingly, the results of extracting the hospital's camera and surrounding businesses showed that at around 4:30 a.m. on February 10, the woman in the clip carried a baby from gate number 4 to Children's Hospital 2.

Nearly 2 hours later, the woman walked across the street to have breakfast, then re-entered the hospital in the area in front of the lobby to wait for examination, and more than 30 minutes later, she turned on her phone to livestream. At 12:37 p.m. the same day, the woman walked across the street to have lunch and nearly 1 hour later, she returned to the hospital. At more than 2 p.m., the woman and her baby went out of gate number 5 of the hospital, took a motorbike taxi and left. According to the hospital, this woman brought her child to Children's Hospital 2 many times, 2-3 times a month, with many different reasons for illness to request the doctor to order tests and CT scans, even though the child did not have any illness.

Children's Hospital 2 confirmed that the information about the clip shared on social media is completely false. According to the conclusion from Ben Nghe Ward Police, there was no pickpocketing incident in front of Children's Hospital 2 on the morning of February 10. "The hospital informed about the incident to avoid affecting social media users. We hope that people will not continue to share the video, nor transfer money to the numerous accounts provided by the woman.

The hospital's Social Work Department is currently the focal point for receiving information about children in difficult circumstances who need help. The information has been verified and we are ready to act as a bridge with benefactors and donors to share love," said a representative of Children's Hospital 2.

In addition, on Facebook, many accounts also posted information that Ms. X. holding her child and crying in front of Children's Hospital 2 was a staged scam and warned people to be careful. However, Ms. X. confirmed to many press agencies and posted on her personal Facebook page that she did not make up the story. What she told was true and she did not use her child to deceive people's sympathy.

In her latest Facebook post, the woman said she had received more than 27 million VND. She also said that apart from the purpose of examining her child, she did not withdraw any money for personal use. The woman also said that asking for money for her child's examination was true, and losing money was also true. She also asked everyone to stop transferring money.

On February 12, Ea O Commune Police (Ea Kar District, Dak Lak) and Ben Nghe Ward Police (District 1, Ho Chi Minh City) worked with Ms. HTX regarding the case of her holding her child crying and filming a clip claiming that her pocket was pickpocketed in front of Children's Hospital 2. Working with the police, Ms. X. said that on February 10, she took her son to Ho Chi Minh City for a medical examination. There, she was staged to have her pocket picked for 9.5 million VND. After finishing the work, Ben Nghe Ward Police took Ms. X. to Ho Chi Minh City to reenact the scene and clarify the incident.
