宏福苑五級火 中國籍女涉借出戶口收5萬元捐款 庭上指涉案款項或達百萬元
More than 100 people died in last Friday’s Level Five fire at Wang Fuk Court in Tai Po. Someone is suspected of using the fire to defraud members of the public of donations. A 27-year-old Chinese woman was accused of lending her bank account to receive HK$50,000 in donations and charged with one count of money laundering. The case came before the Eastern Magistrates’ Court for the first time on Thursday (4th).
The defendant was not required to enter a plea for the time being. The prosecution applied to adjourn the case pending further police investigation and also disclosed that the amount involved was preliminarily believed to have reached HK$1 million, although more time was needed to confirm this. The defence’s bail application was granted. Chief Magistrate Chi Wai (1965) Cheung adjourned the case until 4 February next year, granting bail on conditions including a cash sum of HK$150,000, surrendering all travel documents and reporting to a police station daily.

涉以假資料詐騙473萬百分百擔保貸款 3人判囚18至27月
Four people allegedly provided false information to obtain more than HK$4.73 million in loans from banks through the SME 100% Guarantee Loan Scheme. They were prosecuted by the Police National Security Department on four charges, including conspiracy to defraud and money laundering. Defendant Cheung Ho-yeung had earlier pleaded guilty in the “Returning Valiant case” and had the charges in this case withdrawn. Two other defendants pleaded guilty, while the remaining defendant was convicted of conspiracy to defraud after trial. The three defendants were sentenced to between 18 and 27 months’ imprisonment at the District Court on Tuesday (14th). Deputy District Judge Wan Siu-ming said the fraud involved planning and preparation and that the amount involved was substantial. However, the first two defendants had not profited from the scheme and had both been used by the mastermind to commit the offences, whereas the third defendant had committed the offence in return for payment, making their levels of culpability different.
The female defendant also testified as a prosecution witness, and part of her evidence formed the basis for the conviction of another defendant. She therefore received a 50% reduction in sentence.
4 名男女涉提供虛假資料，透過中小企百分百擔保貸款計劃，詐騙銀行批出逾 473 萬元貸款，被警方國安處起訴串謀欺詐、洗黑錢等 4 罪。其中被告張昊揚早前在「光城者案」認罪，在本案獲撤控。另兩名被告認罪，餘下一人受審後串謀詐騙罪成，周二（14 日）於區域法院被判囚 18 至 27 個月。
暫委法官溫紹明指，本案詐騙行為有計劃及預備，所涉金額不低。但首兩名被告於本案中並無獲利，均被主謀利用犯案，第三被告則收取金錢後犯案，罪責不同。另外，案中女被告以證人身分作供，部分證供成為另一被告的定罪基礎，獲 50% 刑期扣減。

涉以假資料詐騙473萬百分百擔保貸款 一人串謀詐騙罪成 官：證據出現多重巧合
Four men and women were accused of providing false information to defraud banks into approving more than $4.73 million in loans under the SME 100% Guarantee Loan Scheme. They were charged by the Police National Security Department with four offences, including conspiracy to defraud and money laundering. Defendant Cheung Ho-yeung had earlier pleaded guilty in the “Gwong Sing Ze” case and had the charges in this case withdrawn. Two other defendants subsequently pleaded guilty, while the remaining defendant, Chow, was convicted on Tuesday (30th) in the District Court of one count of conspiracy to defraud.
Acting judge Jason Siu Ming Wan said WhatsApp records showed that the defendant had asked the mastermind to transfer $500,000 earned from trading watches into the company’s income so that the amount could be increased when applying for a 100% guarantee loan for a second time. On the day the two discussed the matter, the mastermind instructed an employee to forge documents claiming that the company had received a $500,000 deposit. The judge found that the “multiple coincidences” in the evidence could not have occurred, and convicted the defendant of conspiracy to defraud.
As for another conspiracy-to-defraud charge, the judge said the defendant had proposed that the mastermind alter the company’s rental records when applying for a loan, and the conversation was suspicious. However, the charge alleged that the defendant had altered the company’s salary records and turnover, so the defendant was acquitted. Of the three convicted defendants, the female defendant who had pleaded guilty earlier was granted bail, while the other two were remanded in custody. The case was adjourned to 14 October for sentencing.
4 名男女涉提供虛假資料，透過中小企百分百擔保貸款計劃，詐騙銀行批出逾 473 萬元貸款，被警方國安處起訴串謀欺詐、洗黑錢等 4 罪。其中被告張昊揚早前在「光城者案」認罪，在本案獲撤控。另兩名被告先後認罪，餘下 1 人周二（30 日）在區域法院被裁定 1 項串謀詐騙罪成。
暫委法官溫紹明指， WhatsApp 紀錄顯示，被告曾著主謀將炒賣手錶所得的 50 萬元，撥入公司收入，以便第二度申請「百分百貸款」時將金額提高。而在兩人討論當日，主謀指示員工偽造單據，報稱公司收到 50 萬元訂金。官認為證據間出現「多重巧合」，不可能發生，串謀詐騙罪成。
至於另一項串謀詐騙罪，官指被告雖曾提議主謀申請貸款時，修改公司租金紀錄，對話可疑，但控罪是指控被告更改公司薪金紀錄及營業額，故裁定罪名不成立。3 名罪成被告，除早前認罪的女被告獲准保釋，其餘兩人均須還押，案件押後至 10 月 14 日判刑。

疑炒賣啟德體育園開幕禮門票 三人涉企圖詐騙被捕
The Kai Tak Sports Park will hold its opening ceremony this Saturday (1 March). The 8,500 electronic redemption vouchers, priced at $10 each, sold out within half an hour of going on sale earlier. Tickets offered by scalpers for as much as $2,000 have also appeared online. Police today arrested three people for attempted fraud, saying they had been reselling tickets online. Two of them did not even possess electronic redemption vouchers and could not have exchanged them for physical tickets to enter the venue; “the so-called electronic admission tickets they were selling simply did not exist.”
啟德體育園本周六（1日）舉行開幕禮，8,500張10元的電子換領券早前開售半小時已售罄，網上更出現索價2,000元的黃牛票。警方今日以企圖詐騙拘捕三人，指三人於網上炒賣門票，其中二人更連電子換領券都沒有，不可能換取到實體票入場，「所謂出售嘅電子門券根本並不存在」。

鄧炳強不點名批余德寶：未知全盤部署下發放消息，對未獲救人士非好事
There have been new developments in the case of several Hong Kong people who were lured to compounds in Southeast Asia and detained. Some have gradually been rescued and returned to Hong Kong, while 10 people remain detained in Southeast Asia and elsewhere. Yu Tak-po, the former vice-chairman of the Yau Tsim Mong District Council who has been helping families follow up on the case, has also periodically cited families’ updates on social media. Secretary for Security Tang Ping-keung criticised him without naming him today, saying: “If anyone learns certain information from the families of those involved, and, without knowing our full deployment, releases what the family members have said to the public, that may not be a good thing for those who have not yet been rescued.”
After attending an event this afternoon, Tang told reporters that another detained Hong Kong person had been released. He said the person was a 29-year-old man who was now safe in Thailand, and that staff from the Chinese Embassy in Thailand had also met him in person. He said dedicated teams from the Security Bureau, the police and the Immigration Department had set off for Thailand this morning, hoping to help the man return to Hong Kong as soon as possible. Tang also said he had spoken with the Consul-General of Thailand in Hong Kong, who had guaranteed that every effort would be made to help the man return to Hong Kong.
多名港人被誘騙到東南亞園區遭禁錮近日有新進展，陸續有港人獲救返港，目前仍有10人在東南亞等地被禁錮。一直協助家屬跟進事件的前油尖旺區議會副主席余德寶亦不時在社交媒體引述家屬分享最新消息，保安局局長鄧炳強今日不點名批評對方：「如果任何人係從佢哋屋企人口中得知一啲情況，而係未知道我哋全盤部署底下，將一啲屋企人所講嘅事情向公眾發放，呢個對於一啲仲未能獲營救嘅人士嚟講未必係一件好事嚟。」
鄧炳強今午出席活動後向記者交代再有一名被禁錮港人獲釋，他指事主為29歲男性，現時正安全身處泰國境內，中國駐泰國大使館職員亦已親身接觸該男子。他又指，保安局、警隊及入境處專責組在今日早上已啟程前往泰國，希望盡快協助男子返港。鄧炳強亦表示已與駐港泰國總領事交談過，對方已保證全力協助該男子返港。

被禁錮港人家屬向緬甸駐港總領事館請願 未獲接信
Families of Hong Kong people detained in Southeast Asian scam compounds, accompanied by former Yau Tsim Mong District Council vice-chairman Yu Tak-po, petitioned the Consulate-General of Myanmar in Hong Kong this morning after earlier visiting the Consulate-General of Thailand in Hong Kong. They hoped the Myanmar government would help rescue them as soon as possible, but no representative accepted their petition letter. They left the letter outside the shopping centre at Sun Hung Kai Centre.
A 25-year-old man was released last Thursday and returned to Hong Kong after his family paid a ransom to a criminal syndicate. At least 11 Hong Kong people remain detained in Southeast Asian scam compounds. Yu Tak-po and the families delivered the petition letter to the Myanmar consulate at the Sun Hung Kai Centre shopping centre this morning. He quoted the released man’s family as saying that they hoped other families would maintain their faith and hope, and that they would be reunited before the Lunar New Year.

社工謝世傑涉詐騙被捕 消息指虛報收入申公屋、長生津
Registered social worker Tse Sai-kit, who is also the convener of the Protect Lantau Alliance, which filed a judicial review in the High Court in August challenging the environmental impact assessment report for the San Tin/Lok Ma Chau Development Hub approved by the government, was arrested by the Hong Kong Island Regional Crime Unit this morning (the 3rd) and taken to Western Police Station for questioning. The person has since been released on bail. A source said Tse was suspected of fraud after allegedly making false statements and concealing actual income when applying for the Old Age Living Allowance and public rental housing, falsely reporting income below the relevant application limits. However, people familiar with Tse said Tse received fees from collaborations with numerous organisations and universities, and even had employment contracts and salary payment records, with monthly income in the tens of thousands, exceeding the income limits for both applications.
The Collective is making enquiries with the police and the Legal Aid Department about the incident. Tse Sai-kit said: “I have nothing much to say for now. Thank you for your concern.”

《集誌社》正就事件向警方、法援署查詢；謝世傑則指「暫時沒有甚麼回應，謝謝關心」。
