Arrested at Luxury Village: Crypto Fraud Kingpin Scammed 4 Billion Baht

Thai immigration police conducted a major operation to arrest a crypto fraud mastermind known as 'Boss Tuan' or Tuan Jianle, a notorious cybercriminal from China. The suspect developed a fake crypto exchange platform called 'BHE Exchange' and issued a fraudulent cryptocurrency token 'DDO', promising high annual returns of 6% and claiming potential 20-fold asset value growth within 10 years. By manipulating growth charts and closing the application, he stole approximately 4.5 billion baht from over 20,000 victims. After fleeing China, Tuan had been hiding in a luxury village in Bang Phli, Samut Prakan province, before being tracked down by immigration police. He was arrested, had his visa revoked, and is set to be extradited to China to face criminal charges.
