Men detained for exploiting website鈥檚 hotel booking promotion
Online Edition
Two men have been detained for making about 360,000 yuan (US$58,000) by taking advantage of a travel booking website’s business promotion loophole, Shanghai police said today.
A man surnamed Kuang and another surnamed Zhang were found to have booked rooms at more than 50,000 hotels around China between September and November on qunar.com.
The website provides a 2 yuan to 10 yuan refund for each booking once a customer checks in. Kuang, a businessman who used the website regularly, discovered that he still got the refund even if he didn?t check-in provided he left a comment about the hotel on the website.
To escape scrutiny by qunar.com, Kuang and Zhang registered more than 70 accounts at the website with the same number of bank accounts, which they created with fake identity information and mobile phone numbers they illegally bought online, police said.
Kuang was caught in his home in Zhoukou City, Henan Province, in January, according to police.
Kuang’s wife, surnamed Xu, turned herself in to police at the beginning of February and returned 220,000 yuan of the illegal profits.
Police said the remaining 140,000 yuan had been spent by Xu, Kuang and Zhang, who surrendered to officers earlier this month.
