A trillion-VND scheme promoted a health supplement while secretly operating a transnational pyramid structure.
Lang Son Provincial Police have dismantled a massive multi-level marketing (MLM) network operating across Vietnam and internationally, arresting 12 suspects and seizing a large quantity of equipment and materials related to the scheme.
On May 21, authorities announced the coordinated operation with the Ministry of Public Security’s Department of Cybersecurity and High-Tech Crime Prevention, Department of Security Investigation, Traffic Police Department, and police forces from Ho Chi Minh City and Dong Nai Province.
The criminal case involves over 9,000 individuals, including more than 7,000 Vietnamese citizens and over 2,000 Taiwanese and Malaysian nationals.
Initial investigations identified Huang Wen Yen (born 1978, Taiwanese citizen) as the general director of Ame Global, a company marketing a health supplement product called Nguu Chuong Chi mushroom. Marketed as a health-boosting supplement, it was also falsely promoted as a financial growth opportunity.
The company’s headquarters is located in Kaohsiung, Taiwan, with a subsidiary, WIN ALL Trading Co., Ltd, operating under the name Ame Global Vietnam at The 67 Tower, Tan Phu Ward, District 7, Ho Chi Minh City.
