Dak Nong Provincial Police said that they have transferred the case to the People's Procuracy at the same level to propose prosecuting the accused Nguyen Thi Hong Dao (born 1990), residing in Dak Wer commune, Dak R'lap district, for the act of "Fraudulent appropriation of property".

In addition to defendant Nguyen Thi Hong Dao, Dak Nong Provincial Police also proposed to prosecute 4 other defendants for the act of "Lending high interest rates in civil transactions".

According to initial information, due to needing capital for business, Nguyen Thi Hong Dao borrowed money from many people for a short period of time, at high interest rates. However, due to continuous business losses, Dao fell into debt.

To have money to pay interest and principal and maintain business operations, from September 2020 to September 2022, Dao provided information that he had close relationships with many bank officials, was collaborating to refinance loans at the bank; had a real estate business cooperation relationship with many people in positions, needed to mobilize capital for business...

Then Dao offered high interest rates and profits to make the victims trust him to lend money.

Dao even impersonated a bank officer, forged text messages with bank officers to discuss borrowing money to pay off debts for other people...

After borrowing the money, Dao did not use it for business as reported but used it to pay off revolving debt and for personal expenses.

According to the police, with the above method, Dao defrauded and appropriated nearly 47 billion VND from 7 individuals. In addition, Dao also owed 28 other individuals a loan amount of 42 billion VND.

Regarding the defendant Nguyen Thi Hong Dao, during the investigation, the police agency clarified that there were 4 subjects in Dak R'lap district who lent Dao a total amount of 5.7 billion VND with interest rates from 100.26%/year to 200.75%/year, illegally profiting a total amount of nearly 1.2 billion VND.
