An employee making a serious phone call with someone.
After a while, A, a woman in her 30s, who had a phone conversation with an employee, enters the restaurant.
Mr. Lee, the restaurant owner, is closely observing Mr. A.
[Mr. Lee/Restaurant President: You are the manager in charge of our kitchen.
When a bank employee is coming, the manager says that he has to prepare cash...
.]
Before Mr. A's arrival, she explained to Mr. Lee that the employee was a bank employee. Mr. A said that he had to repay the existing loan in order to get an additional loan from him. She said that she had come to receive the money.
[Damaged employee: payment is suspended.
Because I kept putting pressure on people like that, I had only the thought that I had to pay it back quickly.]
When the employee turned over 15 million won in cash withdrawn from the bank, Mr. Lee, unable to erase the suspicious feeling, asked for a business card. I was convinced that it was a voice phishing crime when I saw Mr. A getting on the elevator while gibbling.
Ms. Lee, who ran down her stairs hurriedly before the elevator, caught Mr. A, who was running away from here, and handed it over to the police.
As a result of the police investigation, it was found that Mr. A had a similar criminal history several times as a voice phishing cash collector.
[Mr. Lee/Restaurant owner: I was constantly looking for something in my bag and trying to get something out, so I was afraid I might pull something out, so I was very scared.
The only thing I had to do was report it and go down and catch him unconditionally.]
The police sent Mr. A to the prosecution on charges of fraud, and awarded Mr. Lee a citation for arresting the criminal.
