A cross-dressing man in China managed to trick eleven men into dating him before running away and taking cash gifts.
日前,中国一名男子通过男扮女装的方法成功地骗过了11名男子,和他们约会,骗取钱财后逃之夭夭。
The 27-year-old, known as Miao Songtao, dressed as a woman and met men online before defrauding them in various means, reports the People's Daily.
据《人民日报》报道,27岁的苗松涛把自己打扮成女人模样,先和男人网聊,随后便用各种手段骗取钱财。
According to the report, the conman managed to trick 11 men into believing he was their girlfriend in an attempt to defraud them in just the space of one year.
据该篇新闻报道,为诈骗钱财,苗松涛将自己打扮成女人模样,成功地使那些男人相信他就是自己的“女朋友”,而在短短一年时间内,就有11人上当受骗。
In one extreme case, he even married his unsuspecting boyfriend who me met in an online chat room in 2015 under the alias Miao Xiaomin.
还有一个更极端的例子,2015年苗松涛化名苗小敏,在一个网络聊天室里结识了一名男子,随后他竟然和这名毫不知情的男子结婚了。
Miao dated a man surnamed Wang for several months until Wang's family arranged a wedding in October last year involving a costly ceremony and grand feast.
当时苗松涛和这名王姓男子交往了数月,去年10月份王家举办了一场婚礼,并安排了一场昂贵的仪式和盛大的宴席。
But to his shock, Wang's new wife disappeared just three days later taking wedding gifts and other items from the family home. His family were concerned that she had left following a minor accident between the couple and so never informed police.
但是令人始料不及的是,仅仅三天过后,王先生的“妻子”就从人间蒸发了,还带走了宾客们赠送的新婚礼物和夫家的其他一些东西。夫家以为是“小俩口”有什么矛盾,所以“女方”才离家出走的,因此也一直没有报警。
However suspicion was aroused when a man from a nearby city reported to police that he met a girl online claiming to be Miao Xiaomin. He said that the girl had used various methods to get around 31,000 yuan (pound 3,237) out of him.
但是随后邻近城市一名男子向警方报案,这才了引起怀疑,该名男子称其在网上遇到一名自称是苗小敏的人。该名男子称,这名女子用各种手段一共从他手中取得了31000元(约合3237英镑)。
Police arrested who they thought was Miao Xiaomin and discovered the man's secrets.
随后,警方逮捕了苗小敏,并发现他竟然是一个男人。
He was possessing an identity card for 27-year-old Miao Songtao. They searched Miao's house and discovered skirts, wigs, high heeled shoes and even women's underwear.
据身份证显示,他今年27岁,名为苗松涛。警方搜索了苗松涛的住处,发现了裙子、假发、高跟鞋等物品,甚至还有女性内衣。
