Dong Nai police dismantle online fraud and tax evasion ring

Dong Nai City Police have prosecuted three additional individuals as part of an expanded investigation into an online business ring. A total of nine suspects have now been charged with consumer fraud, illegal invoice trading, and tax evasion.

The group allegedly used Facebook livestreams to sell large quantities of dietary supplements and cosmetics of questionable quality and origin. Investigations revealed that some products had previously been subject to recall orders by the Hanoi Department of Health, yet the group allegedly concealed this information to continue selling them for illicit profit.

Following coordinated raids in Dong Nai and Ho Chi Minh City, authorities seized 185 boxes of goods and various documents. The operation identified Thanh Tra Express Co., Ltd., established in late 2022 by Dinh Ma Hoai Nam, as a key entity used to facilitate the online sales operations.
