After losing money in business, Phuc came up with the idea of ​​defrauding and appropriating other people's property. After depositing a small amount of money to buy a car, he used the car's image and information to sell it to others at a cheaper price, in order to appropriate the money.

On June 26, Nghe An Provincial People's Court opened the first instance trial of defendant Nguyen Duy Phuc (born 1997), residing in Van Thanh commune, Yen Thanh district, for the crime of "Fraudulent appropriation of property".

Nguyen Duy Phuc works in the used car business. Since the beginning of 2024, Phuc has been losing money in business and owing many people money, so he has the idea of ​​appropriating other people's property.

His trick was to go to used car sales websites to get information and pictures of the car, then offer it to people in need. To make customers trust him enough to transfer money, Phuc sold it at a cheaper price to get the money in advance from the customers.

On June 23, 2024, through a used car sales page on Facebook, Phuc learned that Mr. Duong Trong Chuong (a used car broker) wanted to sell a Hyundai Accent car for 350 million VND. Phuc texted to buy, then deposited 5 million VND for Mr. Chuong to send information and pictures of the car.

When he got information about the car, Phuc posted an article, pictures, and registration certificate to sell the car. At the same time, Phuc texted Nguyen Hai L. (born in 1982, residing in Hung Yen) to offer the car for sale at 340 million VND.

On the afternoon of June 26, because he needed more money to pay off his debt and saw that Mr. L. had agreed to transfer money to buy the car earlier, Phuc continued to offer another car for sale for 295 million VND.

After Mr. L. agreed to buy 2 cars, Phuc asked him to transfer half of the money in advance as a deposit to pay off the debt. Trusting him, Mr. L. transferred 395 million VND to Phuc in advance. Phuc used that money to pay off the debts of many people.

After transferring the money, Mr. L. asked when he would receive the cars. Phuc lied and said that the two cars were being transported. At the same time, he sent pictures of the two cars taken earlier to reassure Mr. L.

A few days later, when the car still had not arrived, L. asked Phuc to send him the phone number of the driver transporting the car so he could contact him. At this time, Phuc asked a friend who claimed to be the driver transporting the two cars to call L.

Continuing to wait without seeing the car return, Mr. L. went to Di An City (Binh Duong) to meet Phuc. At this time, Phuc lied that he could not contact the driver at the moment.

When Mr. L. asked for the money back, Phuc tried to avoid it. Therefore, Mr. L. filed a complaint against Phuc with the police. On September 20, 2024, the police arrested Nguyen Duy Phuc on an emergency basis.

At the trial, the defendant admitted to the crime. The defendant stated that due to business losses, debt to many people, and inability to pay the debt, he committed fraud as charged in the indictment.

The defendant asked the court to consider reducing his sentence so that he could soon have a chance to start his life over. After the trial, the panel of judges decided to extend the deliberation.
