Most-wanted fraud fugitive surrenders

Xinhua, April 11, 2016 Adjust font size:

A fugitive surrendered to police on Monday, a day after being included on a list of China's 10 most-wanted telecom- and Internet-fraud suspects.

Tan Dunhui, 39, is accused of tricking a corporate accountant in Yangzhong, Jiangsu Province, into transferring 5 million yuan (773,500 U.S. dollars) into a bank account he designated via a mobile phone text message in June 2013.

Tan has been escorted to Yangzhong from Loudi, Hunan Province, where he surrendered to local police, pending investigation, the Ministry of Public Security said.

The ministry published the top 10 on Sunday, offering groups or individuals 50,000 yuan for information leading to the arrest of each suspect. Endi
