Losing football betting, 'staging' to lose 200 million VND in account to blame the bank

The declaration was due to losing football betting, so he remembered that recently there were many cases of people reporting lost money in their accounts, so he plotted to blame the bank.

On September 2, Phan Thanh Bien (23 years old, residing in Thanh Xuan district, Hanoi) went to a transaction office of a bank in Hanoi to report that his account had been hacked and money had been transferred many times with a total amount of 200 million VND.

After verification, bank staff found that there were indeed many money transfer orders with a total of 200 million VND, but it was done through Bien's phone. Seeing that the customer's reflection was false, the bank reported it to the Hanoi City Police.

Working with the police, after some deviousness, Bien admitted that he was "acting". He said he was working as a worker at an industrial park in Me Linh district. On the evening of September 1, Bien placed a large bet, resulting in a heavy loss, having to pawn his SH motorbike and transfer money twice via credit card to the online bookmaker.

Bien remembers that recently there have been many cases of people reporting sudden loss of money in their accounts, so they plotted to blame the bank.

Currently, the 200 million VND account that Bien transferred to the bookie in Ho Chi Minh City has been frozen.
