'Breaking' that he is a union official, he cheated his old classmate out of more than 9 billion VND
(Baonghean.vn) - Without a stable job, Nguyen Thanh Nam created for himself the cover of a successful, high-status, intellectual person in society to defraud and appropriate property.
The Criminal Police Department, Nghe An Provincial Police is temporarily detaining Nguyen Thanh Nam (born in 1997), residing in Tung Anh Commune, Duc Tho District, Ha Tinh Province to investigate and clarify the act of "Fraudulent appropriation of property".
From January 2023 to present, due to needing money to invest in the BO trading floor (a binary options trading floor to predict the upward or downward trend of assets in cyberspace), Nguyen Thanh Nam came up with the idea of defrauding and appropriating the property of a man who was Nam's old classmate. Accordingly, to make the victim believe, Nam "bragged" to his friend that he was currently a youth union official with close relations with provincial and central leaders. When he won the victim's favor, Nam lied on the grounds of needing money and then borrowed money from the victim many times to appropriate the victim's property with an amount of up to over 9.4 billion VND. Nam used all the money he defrauded from the victim to invest in the BO trading floor, then lost everything.
It is worth mentioning that although Nam did not have a stable job, he created for himself a "cover" of knowledge and success, regularly posting pictures of himself at luxurious locations to serve his fraudulent behavior of appropriating property.
Determining Nguyen Thanh Nam's behavior showed signs of fraud and appropriation of property with a very large amount of money. The Criminal Police Department reported to the provincial police leadership. After a period of grasping the situation, on November 20, 2023, the Criminal Police Department arrested Nguyen Thanh Nam for the act of "Fraudulent appropriation of property", confiscating and temporarily detaining many related exhibits and documents.
The Criminal Police Department, Nghe An Provincial Police, informs anyone who is a victim of Nguyen Thanh Nam to contact or come to the headquarters of the Criminal Police Department, Nghe An Provincial Police to report and coordinate the settlement.
