Cambodian police arrest 72 Chinese nationals for telephone scam
Online Edition
CAMBODIAN police have raided a guesthouse in Tboung Khmum province, northeast of Phnom Penh, and arrested 72 Chinese nationals who were allegedly involved in a telephone scam, the National Police's website reported on Saturday.
"Seventy-two Chinese nationals, including 19 females, were arrested on suspicion of telephone fraud during the raid on Friday afternoon," Tboung Khmum provincial police chief Gen. Mao Pov was quoted by the website as saying.
A number of telephones and laptops, which were used by the scammers to threaten and extort money from people in China, were also seized as evidence.
Scammers often use overseas servers to make scam calls to their victims in China, claiming to be court or police officers, noting that the victims' bank accounts had been breached so that they have to transfer the money to a separate safe account.
