Four mainland Chinese women arrested for currency exchange fraud
Four cases of currency exchange fraud were successively reported to the Judiciary Police on 8th November 2023. The Economic Crimes Division officers promptly followed up with the investigation.
Four victims from mainland China had allegedly agreed to exchange Hong Kong Dollars with Renminbi with members of a “money exchange gang”. During the transactions, they remitted money to designated bank accounts as instructed, only to find that all banknotes received were counterfeit ones, commonly known as “practice vouchers”. The hotel security guards were immediately notified, successively intercepting the four “money exchange gang” members on the spot. Four women were involved in the four cases, which incurred four victims a collective loss of around RMB 570,000.
Upon investigation, it was learnt that the four persons belonged to the same fraud syndicate. Admitting to their perpetration, they reported to have been recruited by upper level members on a social networking platform and collected “practice vouchers” from other members in Zhuhai, before using them to settle transactions with the victims in Macao. A reward ranging from RMB 700 to 3,000 per person was expected upon each successful transaction.
The four individuals were transferred to the Public Prosecutions Office for the charges of fraud and criminal syndicate.
