Hundreds of people lost sleep when 3 capital mobilization lines declared bankruptcy.

On October 21, Mr. Nguyen Van Thuong, Vice Chairman of the People's Committee of Quynh Luu district ( Nghe An ), said that regarding the information that many people in Quynh Long commune lost billions of dong when depositing money into capital mobilization lines in the area, the People's Committee of the district assigned the district police to clarify.

"The district police are verifying. We will inform you when we have a specific report," said Mr. Thuong.

Previously on the evening of October 18, many people gathered in front of the homes of Ms. BTN (Cong Hoa village) and Ms. TTH (Minh Thanh village) in the same Quynh Long commune, putting pressure on the two people to return the money.

Faced with a situation where people gathered in large numbers, shouted, and played loud music, the Quynh Long commune authorities had to send forces to restore order and persuade people to disperse.

According to many people, Ms. N. and Ms. H. are the two main sources of high-interest deposits in the area. Many people in the commune have deposited money with these individuals, but both of them suddenly declared bankruptcy and were unable to pay back the money, causing confusion and anxiety among the people.

The news of the bankruptcy of the capital mobilization line owner happened 4 days ago but Mr. BH (born in 1963, residing in Quynh Long commune) is still in shock. After the shock, the man who used to travel to the South and North to do business fell ill and lay flat on the bed.

Mr. BH participated in depositing money into 3 capital mobilization lines of Ms. N., Ms. H. and Ms. NTV (residing in Minh Thanh village). By the time these people declared bankruptcy, Mr. H. had deposited a total of 9 billion VND.

This amount, in addition to the entire family assets, Mr. H. also borrowed from outside to deposit and receive interest. Before the capital mobilization lines declared bankruptcy, each month, Mr. H. received more than 130 million VND in interest.

"At first, I only sent money to Mrs. TTH. The procedure was quick and simple, with an interest rate of 1.5%/month. Seeing that they paid interest regularly, were doing well in business, and often did charity work, I trusted them even more and sent more money. Later, I also sent money to Mrs. N. and Mrs. V.

A few days before declaring bankruptcy, they still invited me to deposit money. I intended to use this money to buy land but I couldn't buy it yet. I thought I would deposit it to get more interest, and withdrawing it would be quick and easy, without having to go through as many procedures as depositing it in a bank. I just trusted them because they were from the same village and commune, but who would have thought...", Mr. H. said sadly.

This man had to sell his newly bought car at a low price to pay off some of the loan. Recently, Mr. BH filed a complaint to the People’s Committee of Quynh Long Commune.

"Quynh Long Commune People's Committee has forwarded my petition and that of many others to Quynh Luu District Police. The police also invited relevant people to come and give statements," said Mr. H.

According to reports, many households in Quynh Long commune and some neighboring communes have deposited money into high-interest capital mobilization lines of Ms. N., Ms. H. and Ms. V. Some deposited a few tens of millions of dong, others deposited tens of billions of dong.

Private sources of Dan Tri reporters revealed that many people deposit their savings, retirement money, money to prepare for artificial insemination... into the above-mentioned capital mobilization lines to enjoy high interest rates, from 1.5% to 3%/month.

Among the depositors were relatives of Quynh Long commune officials. It is estimated that the amount of money people deposited into the above capital mobilization lines was up to hundreds of billions of dong.

To learn more about the incident, Dan Tri reporter contacted the leaders of Quynh Long Commune People's Committee but received no response.
