‘Considerate’ con man preyed on the emotions of women to fleece them and faked medical documents to get them to part with cash
A man in China has been jailed for 13 years for cheating more than 20 people, including five of his divorced wives, out of a total of two million yuan (US$280,000).
The 39-year-old man, known as Liu, got married and divorced between 2009 and 2024 with six different women.
The last five of them, and their families, were swindled out of money by him, state media CCTV reported.
A court in Ziyang, Sichuan province, southwestern China, recently sentenced Liu to jail for fraud.
