The couple was arrested by the specialized forces of the Anti-Technology Crime Department in cooperation with the Phnom Penh Municipal Police and the Phnom Penh Municipal Prosecutor’s Office.
According to the Anti-Technology Crime Department, the suspects were involved in a case of love scam on the social network WhatsApp.
On Saturday, October 15, 2022, the department issued a statement that the suspects solicited money from victims under the guise of pretending to be attractive females and then asking for fees for items that the fake lover had ordered.
