These individuals were arrested in an apartment in West Jakarta after investigators received reports of "love scamming" victims, who consisted of one Indonesian and 367 foreign nationals from countries such as the United States, Argentina, Brazil, South Africa, Germany, Morocco, Turkey, Portugal, Hungary, India, Jordan, Thailand, Austria, the Philippines, Canada, the United Kingdom, Moldova, Romania, Italy, and Colombia. Director Djuhandhani explained that the suspects employed applications like Tinder, OkCupid, Bumble, and Tantan to deceive their victims, adopting false identities as both men and women. Once successful in gaining their victims' trust, the scammers pretended to be seeking a romantic relationship. After establishing a connection, the scammers would request the victims' phone numbers and engage in romantic conversations, sending provocative photos to further deceive and convince them. Subsequently, the victims were coaxed into starting online businesses by depositing an initial amount of Rp20 million through a provided link (http:sop66hccgolf.com). The suspects reaped between Rp40 billion to Rp50 billion per month from the crimes. The seized evidence includes 96 mobile phones and 19 laptops of various brands. The suspects are charged under Law No. 11/2008 on Information and Electronic Transactions (ITE) that carries a maximum sentence of six years in prison .
