On November 6, the Office of the Ho Chi Minh City Police Investigation Agency announced that the unit had initiated a case, prosecuted the accused and detained Tran Thi Minh Kiem (born in 1979, residing in Dong Thanh commune, Hoc Mon district - Director of Dai An Surveying and Mapping Service Trading Company Limited) to investigate the crime of Fraudulent appropriation of property.
Previously, the investigation agency received a criminal complaint about the act of fraud and appropriation of property through real estate transactions by Tran Thi Minh Kiem.

According to the accusation, the transactions involved land plot No. 195, map sheet No. 8 (area 949m²) and land plot No. 413, map sheet No. 9 (area 1,567m²) in Dong Thanh commune, Hoc Mon district, owned by Mr. TVC.
Before his death in 2005, Mr. TVC divided and sold the entire area of these two plots of land to many other people, but still kept the Land Use Rights Certificate (LURC) and handed it over to his wife, Ms. NTV, and daughter, Ms. THT, to manage.
Kiem gave false information, telling Ms. NTV that the remaining 4m² of land plot 195 was adjacent to land plot 196 (registered under the name of Mr. TVT - Kiem's ex-husband) and asked Ms. NTV to authorize him to sell land plot 196 with the 4m² of land plot 195.
On October 17, 2017, Ms. NTV and Ms. THT went to the Notary Office on Ba Trieu Street, Hoc Mon Town, Hoc Mon District to sign a power of attorney contract. Due to trust and not carefully reading the content, Ms. NTV and Ms. THT signed a power of attorney for the entire remaining area of plot 195 (247.2m²) and plot 413 (52m²) to Kiem. In fact, the area in this power of attorney contract does not exist.
With the land use right certificate and authorization contract, Kiem met with Ms. BTTH (living in Ward 22, Binh Thanh District) to mortgage this document to borrow 1 billion VND. When the deadline came and she was unable to pay, Kiem took Ms. BTTH to plot 196, saying that it was plot 195, and at the same time hired a map to be drawn of the current status of plot 195 on top of plot 196.
Kiem also stamped Dai An Surveying and Mapping Service Trading Company Limited on the drawing, confirming that this was plot 195. On March 20, 2019, Kiem and Ms. BTTH signed a contract to transfer 247.2m² of plot 195 for 1.5 billion VND at the notary office.
When Ms. BTTH completed the procedures to transfer ownership at the Hoc Mon District Land Registration Office Branch, she discovered that the purchased land plot did not exist and filed a complaint against Kiem with the Ho Chi Minh City Police Department of Investigation.
The Office of the Ho Chi Minh City Police Department has announced the fraud scheme of Tran Thi Minh Kiem and advised people to be careful in real estate transactions.
Anyone who is a victim of Tran Thi Minh Kiem should contact the Office of the Ho Chi Minh City Police Department of Investigation (268 Tran Hung Dao Street, Nguyen Cu Trinh Ward, District 1), meet Nguyen Trung Dung - investigator, phone number 0908.607.878 to report and support the investigation.
