ME News message. On April 26 (UTC+8), Hong Kong police disclosed the investigation and solving of a cross-border telephone fraud case. The criminal group impersonated Mainland officials and specifically carried out scams targeting Mainland students studying in the UK and Australia. The fraudsters falsely claimed that the victims were involved in criminal cases such as money laundering, and asked them to “cooperate with the investigation,” then went to Hong Kong and, in multiple installments, purchased gold grains at a jewelry store as a “deposit.” Each time, the amount did not exceed 120,000 HKD to evade the jewelry shop registration system. The group members would then collect the gold grains and transfer the stolen proceeds. The gold grains were later melted into gold bars or exchanged for cash and virtual currencies. Police have so far received 7 related cases, with the total amount involved of about 7 million HKD, and the highest loss in a single case reached 1.6 million HKD. (Source: ChainCatcher)
