A married man in his 40s with children has been arrested and charged with stealing billions of dollars from a woman he dated while pretending to be unmarried.

The Suwon District Prosecutor's Criminal Division 3 (Assistant Prosecutor Kim Seong-won) announced today (20th) that it has arrested and charged Mr. A with fraud and falsification of personal documents.

Ms. A is accused of misappropriating a total of more than KRW 2016 million from Ms. B, the woman and victim with whom she was dating from February 2 to November 2017, in the name of business expenses.

It was investigated that Mr. A, who was already married and had children, lied about his job, marriage, and whether he had children by claiming to run a gym while meeting Mr. B.

In addition, Miss A used fake parents and guests to marry Miss B in the fall of 11.

However, when Mr. B became suspicious of himself by constantly delaying the marriage registration, he forged the passbook as if the balance was 1.8 billion won, and in order to reassure Mr. B's parents, he falsified the family relationship certificate as if he had no spouse and children.

However, when Mr. B did not enter the house and could not be contacted after Mr. A got married, his fraud was exposed when he got in touch with another woman who had been victimized by a similar tactic while investigating his whereabouts.

In the fall of 400, four years after they got married, they filed a complaint against Mr. A with the investigating agency.

Initially, the prosecution sent Mr. A for a non-binding opinion in connection with this case, but later a supplementary investigation revealed additional charges of falsifying the passbook and family relationship certificate, and detained Mr. A in consideration of the seriousness of the crime, flight and fear of destroying evidence.

A prosecutor's office official said, "We have referred victim assistance to the Crime Victim Support Center," and "we will thoroughly maintain the prosecution so that the accused can be punished commensurate with their crimes."
