Popular Post webfact Posted September 6, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted September 6, 2023 The Cyber Crime Investigation Bureau (CCIB) arrested a Thai man operating a romance scam using a fake social media profile of a woman to dupe nearly 2.6 million baht from a victim. The arrest was made following a complaint filed by a victim last year. The victim revealed that the scammer used the profile of an attractive woman to approach him on a social media platform. The scammer invited the victim to invest in cryptocurrency, promising a high return of 50%. After the victim expressed interest, the scammer sent him a website for registration. In the beginning, the investment gave the victim a high profit and he could withdraw money without any complications. On the back of this, the victim transferred 2.58 million baht into the website to gain more profit. However, he faced more and more conditions when he wanted to withdraw his money. The website required him to pay taxes, pay withdrawal fees, or invest more to access both the initial investment and profits. by Petch Petpailin Photo via Facebook/ ตำรวจไซเบอร์ – บช.สอท.
