The subject used fake images to post on social networking sites and called on people to transfer money to charity in the mini apartment fire that killed 56 people in Thanh Xuan district, Hanoi.

The Criminal Police Department, Hanoi City Police, has just discovered that the account of Nguyen QT (born 1999) in Thach Ban ward, Long Bien district, Hanoi has signs of fraud and property appropriation through the form of charity calls.

According to the documents of the Police Agency, T. and his wife are currently using a social network account named "Hoai Thu" to do online business. After the mini apartment fire that killed 56 people in Thanh Xuan district, Hanoi, T. used the Facebook account "Hoai Thu" to create a group "Watching the big fire at the mini apartment building Khuong Ha - Hanoi" to share information and articles related to the fire to increase followers and sales.

Subject T. impersonated the Head of Department of Bach Mai Hospital.

At around 10pm on September 14, seeing a post in the group calling for charity to support the victims of the fire, T. saw that he could take advantage of this to appropriate property, so he copied and posted the above information.

To create more trust, T. went online and took a picture of a woman as the profile picture for the account "Hoai Thu" and claimed to be the Head of Bach Mai Hospital. Then he used this Facebook account to call for charity and transferred it to his account.

By September 16, knowing that her husband's actions were illegal, T.'s wife deleted the post. T.'s account has not yet received any donations.

The Criminal Police Department recommends that people, when donating money, should go to the relevant agencies and units so that the money is used for the right purpose, avoiding being taken advantage of and scammed by criminals. The Criminal Police Department also coordinates with relevant units to review, inspect and strictly handle cases of taking advantage of the epidemic situation, fires and explosions... to fraudulently call for charity.
