When the victim wonders why they haven't received a notification from the bank that they have received the money, the scammer often says that the network of other banks is different from the system, so the transaction takes time and cannot be reported immediately. As for the bank that transferred the money, they report it quickly, then take the money and use it as an excuse to get in another car and escape.

Taking advantage of this, Viet scammed dozens of people in Con Cuong and Tuong Duong districts with tens of millions of dong. Previously, after scamming some people in Yen Hoa commune (Tuong Duong), Viet took a bus to Ky Son district. While using the above trick to scam a taxi driver in Muong Xen town, he was suspected by this driver and reported to Muong Xen town police, who took him to the police headquarters for questioning.

"As the end of the year approaches, scammers often use many sophisticated tricks to scam, so everyone needs to be more vigilant, absolutely should not transfer cash or transfer money to accounts of strangers, otherwise it will be easy to fall into their trap", Major Tran The Nghia - Head of Muong Xen Town Police warned.
