Recently, high-tech crimes have been occurring nationwide, with increasingly sophisticated forms, the number of fraud cases has been increasing, causing serious consequences to property and making people angry and worried.
High-tech crime is a type of “non-traditional” crime, operating in a wide area, regardless of borders or territories, with increasingly sophisticated methods. According to the assessment of the police agency, fighting traditional crime is difficult; fighting “non-traditional” crime, crime that takes advantage of high technology is many times more difficult, because criminals of this type often have knowledge of information technology, frequently changing their methods of operation to commit crimes.
In Nghe An, in 2023 alone, the police force discovered, arrested, and handled dozens of cases and hundreds of subjects using high technology to commit crimes.
Most recently, the Criminal Police Department presided over and coordinated with relevant units to arrest 50 Vietnamese people residing abroad who used high technology, impersonating judicial officials to defraud and appropriate property of Vietnamese people in many localities across the country, with an amount of more than 500 billion VND, led by 2 subjects Phan Van Phuong (born in 1991), residing in Kim Thanh commune, Yen Thanh district and Tang Quang Vinh (born in 1989), residing in Ward 11, District 5, Ho Chi Minh City.
Faced with the complicated situation of high-tech crimes in Nghe An province, with an increasing trend and increasingly sophisticated methods and tricks, on May 19, 2021, the Provincial People's Committee issued Directive No. 17/CT-UBND on strengthening solutions to prevent and combat high-tech crimes.
