On June 3, the Investigation Police Agency of Lang Giang District Police (Bac Giang) issued a decision to prosecute the case, prosecute the accused and issue an arrest warrant for Nguyen Van Tinh for fraud and appropriation of billions of dong by recruiting collaborators to make processed goods at home.
Bac Giang Provincial Police in coordination with Lang Giang District Police investigated and clarified that Nguyen Van Tinh (born in 1995) had taken advantage of social networks to commit fraud and appropriate property.
Through investigation, the police determined that around June 2021, Tinh opened an account at Giao Hang Tiet Kiem Joint Stock Company to send and receive goods. After that, the subject imported cheap processing materials to open a factory at home with the purpose of posting on social networking sites tocheat the collaboratorsparticipate and then appropriate property.

The group’s modus operandi was to use different Facebook accounts to post advertisements looking for collaborators to work from home with attractive income levels. The items that the group aimed to “offer” were “folded lucky money bags” and “high-quality processed seed bags”.
To create the prospect of an easy, high-profit job, the subject promises that when participating, collaborators only need to pay in advance 450 thousand VND/1 order (material cost), after completion, the subject will buy back the finished product for 1,400 VND/1 order.
With such tricks, up to now the police force has identified about 6,000 victims in localities nationwide who fell into the "fraud trap", Tinh has appropriated an amount of about over 2 billion VND.
Currently, the Investigation Police Agency of Lang Giang District Police is continuing to investigate and expand the case and requests that anyone who is a victim of Nguyen Van Tinh contact the nearest police agency or the Investigation Police Agency of Lang Giang District Police via phone number 0984.225.793 (Investigator Phan Van Chinh).
