Snapper, cod and surimi products are particularly vulnerable to fraudulent substitutions. The high abundance of Pseudomonas in tilapia sashimi mislabeled as snapper unveils a potential health issue pertaining to the consumption of raw mislabeled seafood. Seafood substitution is a fraud in which the fish is sold by the name of a different, often more expensive fish. modern seafood products often appear in the form of fish pieces, filets or even ready-to-eat meals instead of whole fishes. The food processing technologies can also change the original color and luster of the meat. The lack of identifiable features poses challenges in verifying label information by the look, touch and feel of the products https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-020-79070-y

Reuters, DW (Germany), 12-31-2020:
Chinese court sentences 29 Taiwanese deported
from Spain
/
In recent years, hundreds of Taiwanese
nationals, suspected of committing telecoms fraud overseas, have been
deported to China instead of their home territory.
Beijing maintains that the Taiwanese nationals
are accused of defrauding Chinese people and should be tried in its courts.
Beijing says it has incurred huge financial
losses as a result of telecom fraud, with callers often impersonating law
enforcement officials and preying on the elderly, students or the
unemployed.

Case study:
In the case below, the
suspect
(an English-speaking laborer)
already attempted to commit fraud by English trick, but Taiwan High chief Prosecutor said
it's not an "attempted fraud" crime. Is the conclusion
one more mistake by Taiwan prosecutors?
int'l and local experts can tell...
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
arguments by high court chief prosecutor Hsing Tai-Chao and Taipei prosecutor Min-Chao Hong |
my reasons |
||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
1 | The suspect (accused) returned money, therefore, it's hard to say she had any illegal intention. |
● "the suspect returned money" is because the complainant found out her intention in time , and then asked her to rewrite IOU (certificate of indebtedness), therefore later the accused has no other choice but to return money. Cambridge dictionary: "attempt" (of a crime) is someone has tried to commit without success.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
2 | it's hard to say the suspect (accused) tried to have money by tricks or ruse. |
●
the suspect (accused) 's mother
language is English, and graduated from senior high school,
why did
she write "brought ~ for "
instead of elementary school 3rd degree (according to US study) word "borrow ~ from"??
besides, her
handwriting was not clear enough, she also used "for" not "to" usually used, because "for"
looks like "from"
more than "to". therefore she was attempting to do
that on purpose or intentionally.
● " brought $2000 for my boss" means her boss owe her money, "borrow $2000 from my boss" means she owe boss money. Looks similar on surface but on the contrary to the bone, it's a clever trick makes creditor to be debtor. |
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
3 |
In investigation session, the
complainant said there's no difficulty in understanding that simple
English, therefore the complainant had not trapped into mistake
|
●
The High
Court
prosecutor
should
review
the
recording
video
during
investigation
(inquery)
session once
again,
the
complainant
said
that for
a short
while
"brought
for" was
mistaken
for
"borrow
from"
since
the
suspect
(accused)
's
handwriting
was not
that
clear.
Another
document
earlier
mentioned
this as
well.
|
|||||||||||||||||||||||||||
4 |
The suspect (accused) had no
bad intention. the complainant should understand "brought $2000 for boss" means "borrow $2000 from my boss" |
In
conversations,
she
never
spoke
out or
blurted
out
any
mistake
even on the
tense
(such as
"I
understood",
not
"understand"
as below
),
not to
mention
people
usually
give
more careful
consideration
to
whatever
they
write on a
document
in
relation
to money.
Therefore,
it's not
within
reason
for an
English-language
people
to write
"brought
for"
standing
for
"borrow
from".

以詐術使人將本人或第三人之物交付者),或是同條第2項之詐欺得利罪 (意圖為自己或第三人不法之所有,以詐術得財產上不法之利益或使第三人得之者), 均對未遂犯加以處罰。
準此,行為人只要是基於詐欺之故意與不法所有意圖而著手施行詐術, 而使相對人陷於錯誤,縱使相對人未實際交付財物,或者行為人未實際獲得財產利益, 仍舊構成詐欺未遂而須加以處罰。
比較有疑問者在於,倘若行為人基於詐欺之故意與不法所有意圖而著手施行詐術, 但未使相對人陷於錯誤,此際究竟構成詐欺未遂,還是根本不構成詐欺罪而不須加以處罰? 我國實務見解曾有認為不構成詐欺未遂者,理由在於「陷於錯誤」 屬於詐欺罪之「本質內涵」,假使行為人根本未陷於錯誤,則並無動用刑法加以保護之必要
