Arresting a 'female tycoon' in the pharmaceutical industry who specializes in fraud
The woman bragged that she was a pharmaceutical tycoon to call on many people to pool money to do business in Western medicine and medical equipment with huge profits, but then defrauded them to get money to spend.
The Ho Chi Minh City Police Department of Investigation said that it has just initiated a case, prosecuted the accused and executed an arrest warrant to temporarily detain the accused Nguyen Thi Ngoc Hue (also known as Nguyen Bao Ngoc, 48 years old, residing in Binh Thanh district) for the crime of“Fraudulent appropriation of property”.
According to initial information, some people sent petitions to the Investigation Police Agency accusing Hue of fraud. The victims stated that Hue always introduced himself as a pharmaceutical tycoon, then gave false information, inviting them to do business with Western medicine and medical equipment with extremely high profits.
Because of trust and greed, many people gave money to Hue.
However, after a while, the victims found out they were scammed and Hue took their money for personal use.
During the investigation, the police determined Hue's criminal behavior. Initially, Hue admitted it.
The Investigation Police Agency is expanding the investigation and requests that anyone who is a victim of Nguyen Thi Ngoc Hue, also known as Nguyen Bao Ngoc, contact the Office of the Investigation Police Agency (PC01) of Ho Chi Minh City Police (268 Tran Hung Dao Street, Nguyen Cu Trinh Ward, District 1) or call 0932.030.792 to meet investigator Nguyen Thanh Binh.
