The police launched an investigation after allegations were raised that a delivery driver, who became famous for riding his dog in a delivery vehicle, stole the donations.
Kyung-tae and Tae-hee are the so-called delivery dogs online.
Delivery driver A became famous by adopting abandoned dogs and carrying them in a delivery vehicle.
The Gangdong Police Station in Seoul announced that they are investigating Mr. A on charges of fraud and violation of the Act on the Solicitation and Use of Donations.
Mr. A raised a large amount of donations last month through his SNS account, saying that he needs treatment for heart disease in his dog.
Suspects have also been raised that he borrowed tens of millions of won under the same name from those who subscribed to his SNS account and did not pay it back.
However, there was a media report that the amount that Mr. A actually spent on dog treatment was about 3 million won, and when it became controversial, Mr. A closed his SNS account and went into hiding.
The police explained that as the investigation is ongoing, 'the exact number of victims or the amount of damage has not been specified yet'.
