'Monster woman' created a fake Facebook account, tricked online players into gambling to appropriate 1.7 billion VND

On April 10, Lam Dong Provincial Police issued a decision to prosecute the case and prosecute Nguyen Nhat Thao Xuan Vy to investigate the crime of "Fraudulent appropriation of property".

However, because the defendant is raising a young child, the authorities applied preventive measures to prohibit him from leaving his place of residence during the investigation.

According to the initial investigation results, Vy met Ms. NTBT (living in the same district of Don Duong) through online hui chains that Vy herself set up. When she discovered that Ms. T. was having financial difficulties due to being "snatched from the hui", Vy had the intention of appropriating her property.

Vy created a fake Facebook account named "Thanh Thao", pretending to be a new player, proactively contacted to join and offered to collect the money from the first round of the new chains that Ms. T. organized. Because of trust, Ms. T. agreed to let "Thanh Thao" participate.

Vy continued to make up the story that "Thanh Thao" had an aunt who would open more large hui chains, promising that the amount of money could be up to 2-3 billion VND.

Using sophisticated tricks, Vy repeatedly urged and incited Ms. T. to join many other hui chains to collect money.

In just the period from January to April 2024, Vy appropriated a total of 1.7 billion VND from Ms. T., using it for personal purposes.

Immediately upon receiving the complaint, the Lam Dong Provincial Police Department directed the Investigation Police Agency to quickly intervene, collect evidence, and protect the legitimate rights of the victim.

The case is under further investigation.
