Two more people suspected of telecom and cyber fraud have turned themselves in after being named in a police warrant.

The Ministry of Public Security (MPS) on Monday issued a warrant for 10 fugitives implicated in telecom and cyber fraud. As of Thursday, five had surrendered to police, according to the ministry.

One of the suspects, 28-year-old Xie Jianhai, allegedly cheated a victim out of five million yuan (750,000 U.S. dollars) on June 2 this year and is also suspected of money laundering for telecom and cyber fraud criminal rings involving more than 100 million yuan.

The other, Wang Zhihui, 28, is suspected of organizing 30 others in telecom fraud schemes since December of last year involving 6 million yuan.

Telecom and cyber fraud made headlines across China last month when Xu Yuyu, 18, from Shandong Province, died of cardiac arrest after losing her tuition money to a telecom scammer.
