He was suspected of defrauding more than 500 Chinese victims in a case involving over RMB200 million.\nImmigration officers found that he was preparing to leave on a forged Mexican passport under the alias “Mr. GOL”, while deliberately concealing his genuine Chinese passport among his belongings. Immigration police then contacted the police liaison officer at China’s embassy in Thailand. Following checks, police identified him as a principal suspect in a transnational fraud group wanted by Chinese police.\nInvestigators said the suspect, surnamed Huang, had fled China’s Yunnan province through an illegal route into Myanmar in 2020. From 2022 to 2024, he and a criminal group allegedly established scam bases in Myawaddy, Myanmar. The group used fraudulent investment platforms, posing on social media as “single, wealthy, successful businessmen”. They first won trust with promises of high returns, then closed the platforms and disappeared with the money, causing substantial losses to more than 500 Chinese victims.\nCompiled by this station","contentScope":"full","proof":{"publishedSourceRevision":"1","publishedWorkingVersionId":"16407","languageVersionId":"13772","visibilityVersion":"2","versionToken":"a1.EJzTbTQvdjP1uOymkSJggK-ADWcUhwCo--No-VP2GTk"},"availableLocales":["zh","en","km"],"attributes":{"sourceLocale":"zh","translationKind":"machine","nodeId":"172","authorText":"","sourceName":"KPS99TV"},"references":[],"links":[],"publishedAt":"2025-12-17T08:42:00Z"}
