Seoul Metropolitan Police Agency arrested a 29-year-old man for swindling by posing as a woman in order to lure prostitute seekers.
The convict, identified by his surname Yoon, allegedly approached some 340 men via online dating websites for false sex trafficking. The tempted victims sent him a total amount of $60,000.
Yoon had posted photos of random women from the Internet, and then suggested “she” would live with anyone who pays “her” debt. His female account was made using his wife and relative’s social security numbers.
Yoon also proposed “conditional dating,” which is also a form of prostitution in which a woman poses as a “girlfriend” while men pay their salary.
The deceived customers paid him from several hundred dollars to thousands. He has been involved in the con since 2008, and six victims have so far contacted the police to report his activities.

여성행세하며 ‘조건만남’ 인터넷 사기
‘성매매’ 제의에 340명이 6천400만원 입금
서울 금천경찰서는 31일 인터넷 채팅에서 자신을 여성으로 속이고 성매매를 하겠다며 340여명으로부터 수천만원을 받아낸 혐의(사기)로 윤모(29)씨를 구속했다.
경찰에 따르면 윤씨는 2008년 9월부터 최근까지 아내와 처형의 명의로 인터넷 채팅사이트에 가입한 다음 남성 340여명에게 접근해 성매매하겠다고 속여 모두 6천400여만원을 받아낸 혐의를 받고 있다.
조사결과 윤씨는 인터넷에서 구한 여성의 사진을 프로필로 등록한 다음 조건만남을 하겠다고 하거나 빚을 대신 갚아주면 같이 살아주겠다고 속여 한 사람당 십여만원에서 수백만원씩 받아 낸 것으로 드러났다.
경찰 관계자는 “윤씨가 수년간 범행을 저질렀으나 성매매를 목적으로 돈을 보낸 피해자 340여명 가운데 단 6명만 경찰에 신고했다”고 말했다.
