Hong Kong’s anti-corruption body issues warning after tourist poses as investigator
Mainland Chinese woman, 30, shares photos of herself dressed in office employee uniform on Instagram-like platform Xiaohongshu
Hong Kong’s anti-corruption watchdog has warned the public about impersonating its employees after a mainland Chinese tourist allegedly posed as an agency investigator in photos posted online.
The woman, 30, surnamed Liu and who describes herself as a model and a fashion blogger from Shanghai, shared photos of her recent trip to Hong Kong on Instagram-like Chinese social media platform Xiaohongshu.
In some photos, Liu, dressed in an office employee uniform, appears to be standing next to the logo outside the Independent Commission Against Corruption (ICAC) headquarters in North Point.
She also displays what looks like a staff warrant card with her name and “principal investigator” rank on it.
In the photos, the card appears to be valid until December 31, 2029.
