Previously, as Lao Dong Newspaper reported, a beauty salon at 112B Tue Tinh street was once reported to have signs of luring and "pickling pockets" of customers. A female customer, after seeing an advertisement for armpit odor treatment priced at 499,000 VND on social networks, came to use the service but then had to spend nearly 62 million VND for many arising items.
Through inspection, functional agencies determined that this facility had not been licensed to operate medical examination and treatment but still arranged 9 service beds, showing signs of using equipment of unknown origin and many other violations. After the incident, Vinh Phu Ward People's Committee established an inter-sectoral inspection team to handle according to regulations.
