Top racing statement that the scam group sent to students

The report of the student's parents who were cheated of money sent to the police and the school has information that on May 23, this student called his mother and said: I was selected by the school to go on an international student exchange in the Federal Republic of Germany and asked my family to deposit money into my account so that I could submit a statement to the school to apply for the exchange.

This student repeatedly asked his family to transfer money to be in the top 5 students with the best financial ability and received 7 billion VND.

The family became suspicious because the student continued to request money transfers, so when they checked their child's account balance, the bank informed them that there was no money left in the account.

When the parents went to the boarding house, they learned that the student had not returned to the boarding house since May 14. Since May 23, the student had not come to practice at the hospital. When they called to ask, the student said he had returned to his hometown to visit his sick mother.

This student has now returned to school.

Speaking to a reporter from Nguoi Lao Dong Newspaper, Associate Professor, Dr. Nguyen Dang Thoai, Vice Principal in charge of Pham Ngoc Thach University of Medicine, said he was very surprised and did not understand how the scammer manipulated the female student's psychology, causing her to repeatedly ask her family to transfer money, only to lose 7 billion VND.

He also said that when the female student's parents transferred a large amount of money to their child, they did not check the accuracy of the information, so when they were suspicious and lost money, they went to the police and the school.

According to Mr. Thoai, the school has continuously warned students about fraud, all information related to studying is posted on the school website. When receiving related information, students should have contacted the school for answers, but this female student ignored it, leading to very unfortunate consequences. This is the second student of the school to be scammed.
