Vietnam transnational fraud and cybercrime operations
Overview
In May 2026, Vietnamese police dismantled a high-level, cross-border fraud network operating from Cambodia that targeted middle-aged women through fake cryptocurrency and foreign-exchange investment websites. The ring, which utilized social media to build rapport with victims, was estimated to cause losses exceeding VND 3,000 trillion annually.
By July 2026, authorities in Hanoi disrupted a related criminal network that harvested personal data to open and sell over 5,000 fraudulent bank accounts, generating nearly 6 billion VND. This operation also uncovered links to gambling advertisements for a Cambodia-based company.
