Before that, on November 2, Hien, Pham Thi Huyen, and Nguyen Thi Thien went to a friend's house in Nghi Xuan commune, Nghi Loc to play. When entering her friend's house, Huyen suddenly remembered that she had forgotten to take out the car keys, so she asked Hien to get them for her. Discovering that Thien's shirt pocket was hanging on the car, there was 860,000 VND, so she took it and put it in her pocket. Greed arose, Huyen opened the trunk of the car and discovered that Huyen had kept some money in it, so she took it. After "stealing" all the victim's money, Hien leisurely brought the keys in to return them. After sitting around for a while, Hien pretended to be busy and asked to leave first.

In the evening, Ms. Thien discovered that the money in her pocket had disappeared, so she called Hien to ask for clarification. After a while of denying the crime, Hien had to return 860,000 VND to the victim. When she got home, Ms. Huyen realized that the 1,980,000 VND in her trunk was gone, so she called Hien to question her. At first, Hien did not admit it, but when the victim threatened to call the police, she promised to bring the money back the next morning.

On the morning of November 3, Nguyen Thi Thien and Pham Thi Huyen took Phan Thi Hien to Nghi Loc District Police Station to confess to the theft. At the police station, Hien admitted all her actions and said that she was in need and was about to pay the rent so she took the risk.
