According to the Vietnam Medical - Pharmaceutical College of Technology, the fake document was professionally designed, named "Noting about international student study abroad program for specialized training certificate cooperation", even forged confirmation from the Russian Government. This is accompanied by information about a talk show "international Scholarship and International Student Tourist" with full details about the time, location, criteria for considering scholarships and instructions for submitting documents, creating a reliable cover. The Vietnam College of Medical and Pharmaceutical Technology has also confirmed that this document is completely fake and not related to any activities of the school.
Previously, on May 27, a female student named T.H.Y reported to the school about being scammed out of up to 390 million VND.
