Wong Ching-kit, a Hong Kong citizen and cryptocurrency fraudster, has become a target of Interpol for his suspected role in several criminal cases, including a cryptocurrency scam worth over HK$3 million ( $384,310).
Red notice details:
According to a report by the South China Morning Post, Interpol has issued a Red Notice against Ching-kit, and police have alerted global legal authorities that he is wanted on one count of fraud and two counts of theft in Hong Kong.
“Ching-kit”, also known as “Coin Young Master”, has a long record of legal violations in Hong Kong.
It is worth noting that he was born Kwan Tsz-kit, but changed his name after being convicted of theft in 2012 and sentenced to 160 hours of community service while working as a swimming coach.
Six years ago, Ching-kit pulled a stunt that involved throwing more than HK$6,000 ($768) from the roof of a house in the Sham Shui Po area.
The police arrested him on suspicion of disorderly conduct in public places, and he was released on bail.
Days after the incident, he donated HK$92,000 ($11,785) to a local restaurant to provide more than 3,800 meals to underprivileged residents.
All these movements to attract attention to him.
“Ching-kit” is currently under investigation in several criminal cases by the Commercial Crime Bureau of the Hong Kong Police.
Local police requested Interpol's help in finding his former partner, Mok Tsun Ting, 26, who is wanted on two counts of money laundering.
