Every day, a group of people impersonating e-commerce platform employees make 1,500 - 2,000 calls to defraud and appropriate property.

On May 11, Cao Bang Provincial Police said they had just dismantled a group of subjects who committed fraud on the internet by impersonating e-commerce trading floors.

Specifically, around March 2024, the Criminal Police Department and the Cyber ​​Security and High-Tech Crime Prevention Department (Cao Bang Provincial Police) received information about a group of people impersonating employees of the Shopee e-commerce platform, calling people with the excuse of thanking customers.

The subjects invited people to add them as friends on Zalo and instructed them to make transactions to appropriate money.
