Two youths sentenced to detention centre for fraud after Tsim Sha Tsui money exchange shop robbed of HK$2 million in currency exchange funds.

Techub News reported, according to Ming Pao, a man carried HK$2 million to a money exchange shop in Tsim Sha Tsui intending to exchange it for USDT. As requested by the shop, he handed the cash to two youths inside the shop, who then placed it in a safe. Subsequently, the shop owner discovered the cash was missing. When confronting the two youths, it was revealed that the safe had a passage leading to a neighboring shop. The two youths attempted to escape through the passage but failed and were ultimately arrested. The two youths later admitted to fraud and were sentenced to a training center yesterday at the District Court. The judge noted that the two defendants were not the masterminds but were indispensable "pawns" in the involved scam.
