[Huang Zuyue, Criminal Investigation Bureau]:

“The suspects use this script to fake roles such as administrators, judges or police officers. In calls to victims, they try to cheat victims by making them believe they are involved in money laundering, drug trafficking or other criminal cases and then swindle large sum of the victims’ money and property."

刑事偵查局黃祖躍說：

「嫌疑用假扮如管理者、法官或警官的劇本。與受害者的通話中，試圖欺騙他們，使他們相信自己涉及洗錢、販毒或其它刑事案件，然後詐取受害者大筆金錢或財產。」

Networks are set up across the countries to cheat people of their money, and the majority of victims were Mainlanders and Taiwanese.

The investigation is still underway and police continue to pursue suspects.
