Fraudulent land sale, appropriation of 8 billion VND
Believing Thu, Mr. P. transferred money many times to the accounts of Thu's acquaintances, and then had about 8 billion VND appropriated.
On December 27, Vinh Long Provincial Police announced that the investigation agency had prosecuted and temporarily detained Nguyen Thi Thu (born in 1973, residing in Vong The commune, Thoai Son district, An Giang province) to investigate the act of fraud and property appropriation.
According to the investigation results, from November 2023 to July 2024, Thu gave false information to Mr. VVHP (born in 1968, residing in Vinh Long city) that he had a plot of land in Phu Quoc district (Kien Giang province) and that someone had bought the land for 18.5 billion VND.
Thu gave the reason that she needed money to get a certificate of celibacy and in return, the land use right certificate no longer had her husband's name on it. Thu's purpose was to ask Mr. P. to borrow money to get the land papers and after completion, he would give her an additional 5 billion VND.
Believing Thu, Mr. P. transferred money many times to the accounts of Thu's acquaintances, and then had about 8 billion VND appropriated.
The investigation agency informs anyone who is a victim related to the defendant Nguyen Thi Thu to come to the Investigation Police Agency of Vinh Long Province (No. 180 Long Hung Hamlet, Thanh Duc Commune, Long Ho District) to coordinate the investigation and clarify. The related subjects should soon come to the police agency to present themselves and make statements to enjoy the leniency of the law.
