Police raided a luxury house in Cilandak, South Jakarta which was used as an online scam headquarters. In this raid, the police also arrested 11 Chinese citizens. The eleven Chinese citizens had the initials LYF (35), SK (24), HW (33), CZ (47), YH (32), HY (48), LZ (33), CW (40), ZL (41), JW (36), and SL (37). From the results of the investigation, the dozen Chinese citizens had lived in the house since March 2025. In their actions, they pretended to be police officers from Wuchang District, Wuhan and targeted Chinese citizens as victims of their fraud. Foreign citizens who were suspected or suspected of having committed fraud through electronic media or online scams and/or fraud and/or immigration crimes.[1]

This is cross-border fraud. They're here, but their victims are likely from their country. According to the evidence we've secured, they were wearing Wuchang District Police uniforms and their writing was all in Mandarin. The fraudulent method is to pretend to be from the Wuchang District Police branch in Wuhan. They call their victims and say they're from the Investigation Detachment. So, they use electronic media, online, to contact their victims.[2] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us for business inquiry, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.
