The singer said that because the account numbers of the sender and the person being refunded did not match, Thuy Tien's side did not agree to pay the amount of 30 million VND. However, the problem was the confusion between the card number and the account number.

At the end of April 2021, an audience "accused"Thuy Tienand the manager embezzled charity money. This person said that she transferred 300,000 VND but mistakenly transferred 30 million VND to support people suffering from storms and floods in the Central region. She contacted manager Thuy Tien to explain the matter, and was promised a refund, but after many months, there was still no movement despite printing out full statements and supporting documents. This incident later became a scandal on social networks.

On the evening of June 3, Thuy Tien officially spoke up about the reason for not returning the charity money that was said to have been transferred by mistake. The female singer said that the audience had affected her and her manager, so Cong Vinh's wife decided to clarify.

Thuy Tien shared about the incident on the evening of June 3.

Accordingly, after receiving information that the Facebook account TH (real name Hong Phuoc) mistakenly transferred 300,000 VND instead of 30 million VND, the female singer's manager contacted to confirm. Thuy Tien's manager agreed to transfer the money back on the condition that she sent a statement and accurate information.

Thuy Tien said, after verificationdid not receive 30 milliontransferred from the account number provided by TH, the bank also confirmed that on October 21-22, 2020, there was only one amount of 30 million transferred to Thuy Tien but it was different from TH's account number. Therefore, the manager stopped contacting TH.

Thuy Tien's post on the evening of June 3 about the incident was no longer displayed on the fanpage.

However, on the morning of June 4, Thuy Tien continued to post related to this incident. She wrote: "Tien's side has received a response email from Hong Phuoc providing the correct information. Phuoc also does not know why when transferring money, the statement only shows the card number while you provided the account number. That is the reason why we cannot find your transaction." The female singer said.will returnaccording to the information received.

Thuy Tien hopes everyone will sympathize with this mistake and apologize to Hong Phuoc. She said that as a singer, she can recognize a note that is out of tune, but because she does not work in the banking industry, looking at a series of numbers to know if it is a bank account number or a card number is "too difficult for Tien". From this incident, Thuy Tien has gained more experience in checking transactions with banks.
