A fake police officer's cover was blown recently when two of the women he was dating and cheating money out of bumped into each another, triggering a series of events that exposed him.

The man, surnamed Xuan, had pretended to be a high-ranking police officer for six years in Anshan, Liaoning province, to impress gullible women and help him trick them out of money.

But he came unstuck when he visited a supermarket with one of his girlfriends on March 28 and bumped into another of his conquests.

The women got into an argument over the man and police were called when the dispute turned into a tussle.

With the intervention of real police officers, the man was forced to reveal his true identity - a dismissed assistant officer who had once worked out of a local police station.

Xuan admitted to police that he had tricked at least 11 women during his six years as a phony officer - he said he couldn't remember the names of his other victims.

He said in his statement that he conned them into giving him at least 200,000 yuan ($30,000).

Xuan said he had admired police officers since he was a child and often told women he was a plainclothes officer.

'가짜 경찰' 행세하다 '진짜 경찰'에게 잡혀

중국 랴오닝성 안산시에서 6년 동안 가짜 경찰로 위장해 신분을 속여 여러 여성들과 성관계를 가지고, 돈을 갈취한 남성이 잡혀 화제다.

이 가짜 경찰 행세를 한 Xuan이란 성을 가진 남성은 지난 3월 28일경 한 여성과 함께 들린 슈퍼마켓에서 또 다른 여성을 만나게 되었다. 자신의 남자친구가 바람을 피우고 있는 것을 본 그 여성은 그에게 다가가서 대화를 하던 중 말다툼을 하게 되었고 결국에는 몸싸움으로 번져 경찰을 불렀다.

진짜 경찰과 대면하게 된 Xuan씨는 취조 중 신분을 밝히라는 경찰관에 자신의 진짜 신분을 공개했다.  Xuan씨의 신분은 전직 경찰관으로 6년 전 한 지방 경찰서에서 근무한 경력이 있는 것으로 밝혀졌다.

Xuan씨는 여태까지 자신을 고위 경찰관이라고 칭하며 최소 11명의 여성들을 유혹해 약 200,000위안 (약 30,000달러)를 갈취한 것으로 드러났다.
