According to Dong Kinh Commune Police, at noon on March 25, Mr. N.V.C (resident of Tri Nang village, Dong Kinh commune) came to report that there was a strange phone number claiming to be a police officer requesting to transfer money to them.
According to the presentation, the subject claimed to be an officer of the Drug Crime Investigation Police Department, informed Mr. C that he was involved in a criminal ring and requested coordination in the investigation.
By using the trick of talking loudly, creating psychological pressure, the subject attacked the panic of the elderly, causing Mr. N.V.C to reveal that he had a savings book of 55 million VND.
Immediately after that, they asked him to withdraw all the money and transfer it to the account they designated under the pretext of serving verification, and at the same time reassured that they would return it if they were not involved.
Trusting him, Mr. N.V.C went to the bank to withdraw money. However, before making the transfer, remembering the propaganda contents of the police force, Mr. C promptly reported, thereby avoiding being defrauded and appropriating property.
Dong Kinh Commune Police recommends that people need to be vigilant. When detecting signs of suspicion of being scammed, they need to quickly contact and report to the nearest police agency for guidance and timely handling.
