Celebrity Angela Lee Becomes Suspect In Fraud Case Of Buying Luxury Bags Of IDR 3.2 Billion

JAKARTA - The police arrested Angela Charlie or known as Angela Lee. This is because the celebgram was involved in a case of alleged fraud or embezzlement from the sale of dozens of luxury bags worth Rp3.2 billion.

"Sudah ditetapkan tersangka dan ditahan," ujar Kabid Humas Polda Metro Jaya Kombes Ade Ary Syam Indradi kepada wartawan, Kamis, 15 Agustus.

Angela Lee's alleged fraud or embezzlement began when she bought several luxury bags from someone with the initials FI through an intermediary in 2017.

The buying and selling process had no significant problems. Then, Angela Lee decided to buy a luxury bag again but without going through an intermediary.

There are at least 15 luxury bags of Hermes and Louis Vuitton that Angela Lee bought from FI.

"Some bags, smooth payments. Because the payment was smooth, the suspect finally bought this luxury bag directly to the victim. A total of 15 bags," he said.

In the sale and purchase agreement, Angela Lee chose the installment payment pattern. However, the celebgram is said to have disappeared without news after paying down payment or DP.

"So he bought it directly to the victim, the 15 bags were only paid once installments," said Ade.

It turned out that dozens of luxury bags had been sold by Angela Lee to other people. However, the celebgram did not hand over or pay its obligations to FI.

"But the suspect did not hand this money over to the victim. So that the victim suffered a loss of Rp. 3.2 billion. So the money was allegedly embezzled by the suspect," he explained.

On that basis, Angela Lee was reported and named a suspect. Currently, the celebgram has been detained at the Polda Metro Jaya detention center.

"The person concerned is being detained under suspicion of alleged fraud and/or embezzlement," said Ade.
