Case:

The victim, Ms. Li, reported to the Tianya Branch of the Sanya Public Security Bureau that she had been defrauded of 74,100 yuan. After receiving the report, the police launched a rigorous investigation. With the assistance of relevant departments of the municipal bureau, the suspect Hong's location was located. At 19:00 on July 10, Hong was captured in a rental house in Lane 1, Lumutkan Village, Jiyang District.

It is reported that on January 20 this year, Ms. Li posted information in a WeChat group called "Sanya Youth XXXXX" that she wanted to book a hotel in Yalong Bay during the Spring Festival. She also posted a message in the WeChat group. After someone saw it, he said that he could help him book a hotel.

After receiving the money, Hong told Ms. Li that the room had been booked soon, but Ms. Li contacted the hotel. The hotel staff said that someone had indeed booked the room, but the reservation payment had not been paid. Subsequently, Ms. Li contacted Mr. Hong. Under repeated questioning, Mr. Hong admitted that he had defrauded Ms. Li of 74,100 yuan in room reservation fees for the purpose of capital turnover. Because Hong failed to return the money, Ms. Li went to Tianya Branch to report the crime for help.

After investigation, Hong was sentenced to three years of probation by the People's Court of Zhenjiang District, Shaoguan, Guangdong Province for contract fraud in 2011.
