"You were possessed by a nine-tailed fox this time, and it had a great impact."
A woman wanted a divorce due to emotional discord. Superstitious about Feng Shui luck, she sought help from a "goddess" and was defrauded of more than a million yuan in total.
In May 2024, Ms. Gu reported to the Tianping Road Police Station of the Xuhui Branch of the Shanghai Public Security Bureau that she had been scammed in the name of transshipment. According to Ms. Gu, in April 2021, she was unable to divorce due to a discord in her relationship. Once when she was having dinner with a friend, her friend said that she had a classmate named He who was proficient in tarot cards, horoscopes, and Feng Shui.
Since He and Ms. Gu were similar in age and marital status, they became friends who talked about everything not long after they met. He proposed that Ms. Gu could get divorced by looking at Feng Shui and doing things to make everything go as she wished.
Therefore, Ms. Gu, who wanted to take shortcuts to avoid divorce lawsuits, asked He to check the feng shui and adjust the layout of her home and office. She also went to He's studio to receive "quantum touch therapy" to change her "own magnetic field" and also purchased the "Crystal Method". "Qi" accepted He's "exorcism" practices, etc., and successively transferred more than 870,000 yuan in "service fees" to He.

At the same time, He borrowed more than 820,000 yuan from Ms. Gu on the grounds that her best friend’s husband was arrested and his clerk was seriously ill, but most of them did not pay IOUs. Because He repeatedly expressed verbally that he would repay the money and did not lose contact, Ms. Gu never chose to report the case out of consideration.
Although it turns out that He's "practice" has no effect and she has never returned any money to Ms. Gu, Ms. Gu has been mired in a divorce lawsuit and has no time for him to take care of her. It was not until May this year that Ms. Gu, who had settled her divorce lawsuit, reported the case to the police on the advice of her lawyer.
After investigation, it was found that the bars and studios run by He Mou had suffered losses all year round, and she herself also owed foreign debts. He's mother had given her some financial help and had mortgaged a property, but it was still not enough to repay.
At present, He has been arrested by the Xuhui District People's Procuratorate in accordance with the law on suspicion of fraud, and the case is still under further investigation.
