'Detectives' Trade Secrets' successfully caught a new type of tool community 'eat-and-run fraud' that caused about 20 million won in damages over the course of a year. It also revealed the true story of a 'drama queen housewife' who stalked her ex-boyfriend and falsely reported a sexual assault, only to face backlash.
On the broadcast of 'Detectives' Trade Secrets' on the 11th, the true identity of the 'eat-and-run fraud' perpetrator from an online tool community with about 700 members was revealed. According to victim testimonies, the fraudster lured people with posts claiming to sell Korean beef and snow crab at extraordinary prices. The fraudster made victims deposit the cost of items into accounts of motels and chicken restaurants, effectively covering their own lodging and food costs. Victims who deposited money for items, as well as owners whose accounts were inadvertently used in the crime, faced significant losses. Meanwhile, news that the fraudster had once again committed fraud, less than two hours after being detained by the police, shocked everyone. It had been less than an hour since he had been released after giving his statement at the police station.
In response, the Owl Detective Group approached the fraudster by disguising themselves as buyers. They confirmed that the account number sent by the fraudster belonged to a nearby pig's feet restaurant and raided the scene. The arrested fraudster surprisingly turned out to be a 29-year-old man born in 1996. He confessed, "I had a bad relationship with my grandparents and left home; I needed money to live outside." He also stated that he had a history of used goods transaction fraud and that the eat-and-run fraud has been going on for almost a year since last August. The fraudster lowered his head and said he would "work hard to repay" the 20 million won in damages. The Owl Detective Group closed his community to prevent recurrence and sent him back to his grandparents' home to undergo a thorough police investigation. They added, "A report has been filed with the police, and an investigator will be assigned." Thus, the 'eat-and-run fraud' that lasted for a year came to an end.
Meanwhile, in the 'case notebook' segment of 'Detectives' Trade Secrets,' where 'Emerging Waterbomb Goddess' Park Ji-won from fromis_9 appeared as a 'daily detective,' a woman requested an investigation into her boyfriend prior to cohabitation. The requester was about to decide to live with her boyfriend when his ex-girlfriend suddenly emerged, revealing, "(The boyfriend) is in an FWB relationship with the café owner he works with and pressured me to have an abortion after getting me pregnant." Upon investigation by the detectives, it turned out that the requester's boyfriend was indeed living with the café owner. It also became apparent that they had dated during college. However, the requester's boyfriend insisted, "I broke up with my ex-girlfriend due to her infidelity, and I'm just a simple business partner and friend to the café owner," maintaining his innocence.
Shortly after the requester and her boyfriend began living together, the ex-girlfriend started stalking them. She would come to their house and create a disturbance, as well as launch review attacks on delivery apps against the café where the requester's boyfriend worked. Even more surprisingly, this ex-girlfriend was actually married, and the requester's boyfriend had received a legal notice from the ex-girlfriend's husband.
When Defconn expressed shock, saying, "How do you plan to handle the aftermath... you're a crazy person," Park Ji-won remarked, "Since life is already ruined... isn't it better to just go all out?" Kim Pung shuddered, saying, "It's terrifying that people like that actually exist." Ultimately, the requester's boyfriend was able to clear his charges thanks to testimonies from people around him who stated that he 'did not know she was married' and surveillance footage from inside the home provided by the ex-girlfriend's husband.
The reality show 'Detectives' Trade Secrets,' which features close-knit detectives, airs every Monday night at 9:30 p.m.
