With the purpose of illegally buying and selling invoices, Mr. Quy and his wife, Ms. Anh, set up many companies to carry out this act and lured their son and some other people to participate. When the incident was discovered, the whole family was prosecuted.

On the morning of June 8, the Economic Police Department of Da Nang City Police issued a decision to prosecute and temporarily detain Vo Ngoc Quy (59 years old, residing in Group 72, Tam Thuan Ward, Thanh Khe District, Da Nang) for 3 months for illegal trading, according to Clause 2, Article 164 of the Penal Code. Mr. Quy's son, Vo Quoc Phong (residing in Dien Ngoc, Dien Ban, Quang Nam) was also prosecuted but released on bail to investigate this act.

Mr. Vo Ngoc Quy is the Director of Tri Phu Quy LLC, and Phong is the Director of An Huy Binh Construction LLC. Both are part of a fake invoice trading ring led by Ms. Tran Thi Anh (Mr. Quy’s wife). According to the Investigation Agency, from 2010 to 2015, these people established four companies to print thousands of fake invoices for many businesses across the country.

According to the police, the total number of invoices that Quy's family sold was more than 5,000 with a value of about 150 billion VND, causing losses of billions of VND to the state budget. Previously, the police also prosecuted the accused Tran Thi Anh but allowed her to be released on bail for investigation due to health reasons.
