Scam in Taiwan

Before I went to Calgary, I worked as a secretary in a Law Studio.  My boss is a lawyer.  We had two cases about the fraud. 

First one is about con men who were selling fake Chinese medicine to old people.  They often worked as a group.  Our client was also old men.  He was already up to 70 years old.  They tried to find old people who were stay lonely in the hospital waiting for the doctor.  One of them seated beside the old people, and chatted to them.  He told the old people that he had the same health problems.  He treated these old people like family.  Old people trusted him.  Then he sold the fake Chinese medicine to old people in high price.  The victim’s family found the fraud, and called the police.  Our client was found guilty of fraud. 

The second one is about a girl who was used by the Scam clan.  Let me tell you the story.  The girl bought something online.  She transferred money by ATM.  After several days, she received a phone call.  The con man, who called her, personated a bank employee.  And told her that she press the wrong button on ATM, that she could be transferred the same mount of money periodical to the seller.  He let the girl go to ATM again and he thought the girl how to use the ATM correctly, and used the ATM in English.  The next day, the girl found that she had no money in her account!  The girl was very nervous!  At the same time, the con mad called the girl again.  She asked the man what happened.  The con man told her it must have problems on her cash card.  The con man asked her to put her cash card with a note which write down the code number into a bag then give it to a betel nut shop.  Then they can figure out her account problem.  The stupid girl followed the con man’s directives.  Of course, the co man disappeared for ever.  Until the girl receive the arrest warrant from District Court.  The charge was conspiracy to fraud.  She realized that the scam clan used her account to transferred money.  She knows that she was not only cheated but also used by the scam clan!
