On June 19, 2024, a retired female executive surnamed Li from a foreign bank in New Taipei City was reportedly scammed out of 30 million by a fraud group through investing in a Facebook advertisement. She joined a fraud group's stock investment Line group where she was deceived into giving away 6 million in cash and 10 kilograms of gold. When the group demanded an additional 13 million investment, Li realized she was being scammed and sought police assistance. The police arrested two suspects, a 18-year-old and a 28-year-old, and transferred them to the local prosecution office for investigation on charges of fraud and money laundering.
