Nearly 90 years old, still scamming many people with job application tricks

As of August 27, Mr. Nguyen Xuan Dien (88 years old, living in Vinh Lai commune, Lam Thao district, Phu Tho province) and Phung Thi Huong (40 years old, living in zone 6, Hoa Phong, Minh Nong ward, Viet Tri city, Phu Tho province) successfully carried out nearly ten fraud cases.

Regarding the above case, the Investigation Police Agency of Lam Thao District (Phu Tho) has issued a decision to prosecute the criminal case; implementing the decision to prosecute the accused against Mr. Nguyen Xuan Dien and Phung Thi Huong for the act of fraud and appropriation of property.

In this case, Mr. Dien proactively met many victims, introduced them as potential job applicants, and received money and their family records. Among them was the case of Mrs. Bui Thi H (residing in Son Vi commune, Lam Thao).

According to Mrs. H, about 3 years ago, Mr. Dien proactively came to see her, introducing that he could find jobs for her two children named Trieu Thi T (31 years old) to work at the Hung Temple Historical Site and Trieu Van D (29 years old) to work at the Viet Tri City Urban Company. Mrs. H did not remember the date but around June 2015, she gave Mr. Dien 50 million VND and job application documents.

Or the case of Ms. Le Thi Th (residing in Zone 5, Thuy Van, Viet Tri City). After getting to know Th, Mr. Dien also proactively met and introduced her as a possible job candidate. Believing in Mr. Dien's recommendation, Ms. Th discussed with Mr. Cao Xuan D (residing in Viet Tri City), who at that time wanted to apply for her daughter Cao Thi Ng (27 years old) to be on the payroll at a school in Phu Ninh district and Ms. Cao Thi H to be on the payroll as a physical education teacher in Phu Ninh district (Phu Tho)...

After receiving 100 million VND from Mr. D and Ms. H, they gave Mr. Dien 90 million VND to apply for a job, but he could not do it. However, for many reasons, both of them did not go to the police station to report.

It is known that around the end of 2014, Mr. Dien accidentally met Phung Thi Huong, at that time, Huong was a railway employee of Viet Tri city. Huong clearly realized that she would not be able to get a job for anyone, but to deceive gullible people, she still introduced herself as having relationships with many people, able to get jobs in many different places.

Partly because he wanted to make money by receiving job applications, and partly because he trusted Huong, Mr. Dien cooperated with this subject. Mr. Dien's first victim was Mr. Nguyen Huu L (residing in Thanh Mieu ward, Viet Tri city).

Mr. Dien met Mr. L at a conference on medicinal plants in Cao Xa commune, Lam Thao district. Around November 2016, Mr. Dien told L that he had a job offer and could apply for jobs in many different places.

L told the above story to Mr. Nguyen Anh D (residing in Tam Nong district, Phu Tho province). At that time, Mr. D wanted to apply for a job for his two younger siblings, Ngo Thi H (residing in Ha Hoa) and Nguyen Thi H (residing in Viet Tri city), so he met Mr. Dien...

After reaching an agreement, Mr. Dien met Huong, Huong agreed to get a job for one person working under contract at Phu Tho Provincial Police Hospital, for about 140 million VND. However, Mr. Dien arbitrarily agreed to get jobs for both of Mr. D's younger siblings, including Ngo Thi H working under contract at Phu Tho Provincial Police Hospital; Nguyen Thi H working at a school in Viet Tri City, and offered a price of 140 million VND/person.

About 2 days later, Mr. D came to Mr. L's house and gave him 2 sets of documents of two people who wanted to apply for a job along with 50 million VND. After receiving the money, Mr. Dien signed the receipt and committed to work at Phu Tho Provincial Police Hospital by December 2016.

After receiving money from Mr. D, L transferred all of it to Mr. Dien... The total amount of money Mr. L gave to Mr. Dien was 260 million VND. However, Mr. Dien only gave Huong 50 million VND to find a job for Ngo Thi H.

After a period of promising but Mr. Dien could not find a job, L asked Mr. Dien to write a debt note and repeatedly delayed the payment of the above amount. On March 31, 2017, Mr. Dien wrote a land sale paper, stating that he was unable to pay the debt so he sold 450 square meters of residential land to L. However, at that time, the land use right certificate was under the name of Mr. Dien's wife (who had died), so he promised to be responsible for the related paperwork and procedures. But after that, he was only able to pay 9 million VND...

From Dien's testimony, the Lam Thao District Police Department has clarified Huong's criminal behavior. During the investigation, it was found that with the above methods, Huong and Dien also committed a number of other crimes. Around October 2015, Ms. Ha Thi Thuy L (residing in Phu Tho town) asked Mr. Dien to get her son a job at a kindergarten in Phu Tho town.

To deceive the victim, Dien and Huong introduced the possibility of getting a job in many places. Mrs. L gave 50 out of the total 100 million VND to Mr. Dien to get a job for her child, but until now, the subjects have not been able to do so. Not stopping there, because she trusted Mr. Dien, Mrs. L also introduced Mai Van H (in Phu Tho town) to meet this subject to ask for a position on the payroll and teach physical education in Viet Tri city.

Mr. Dien received 50 million VND from the victim but then spent it all. Mr. Dien received a total of 510 million VND, of which the purpose was to appropriate 110 million VND. Huong wrote a receipt for 170 million VND to apply for a job... The case is still being investigated and clarified.
