Missing girl located in Jiangsu
A LOCAL 12th-grader, who went missing on Tuesday afternoon, was found in another city on Wednesday.
The student said she was a victim of a phone scam.
The girl’s parents reported her missing to the police after receiving a call on Tuesday from a stranger who claimed she was kidnapped and demanded 500,000 yuan (US$75,000) as ransom.
The 18-year-old girl, surnamed Lu, told police she was duped by a call on Tuesday morning. The caller claimed to be from a mail delivery company and told her that her family was under threat from gangsters because the Customs officials had found three fake identity cards in a mail she had sent to Macau.
Then a “police officer surnamed Ma from Chongming” called her and asked her to immediately leave for a safe place. He also took the names and contact details of her parents.
Lu took a taxi to Nantong city in Jiangsu Province. She then headed to Lianyungang city further north in the same province from where she was eventually found by the police.
The city’s police unit monitoring telecom frauds said it detected the first suspicious calls to Lu on Tuesday morning and warned her parents about it after failing to contact her.
