Looks like another online scammer just got caught red-handed. The National Bureau of Investigation-National Capital Region (NBI-NCR), under the supervision of NBI Director Judge Jaime B. Santiago (Ret.), swooped in and arrested a Chinese national in Muntinlupa City for online fraud.
On February 20, 2025, NBI-NCR and DFLD Agents executed a Warrant to Search, Seize, and Examine Computer Data (WSSECD) at a house in Muntinlupa. Inside, they found laptops, multiple ATM cards, and a One-Time Pin—clear signs of shady financial activities. The man behind it? HAIPENG WANG, a Chinese national, who was immediately placed under arrest.
The bust was set into motion after Ayala Alabang Village Association (AAVA) officers flagged Wang’s suspicious activities and requested an investigation. Turns out, he was running an online scamming operation, violating the Anti-Financial Account Scamming Act (R.A. 12010).
Aside from Wang, five Filipinos were also inside the house during the raid. They were taken in for questioning as authorities dug deeper into the case. DFLD Agents conducted an on-the-spot search for computer data, which will be used as evidence in the inquest proceedings.
Now, Wang is facing charges under R.A. 12010 and the Access Device Regulations Act (R.A. 8484). With the evidence piling up, it looks like his scamming days are officially over.
