Multi-million investment scammer nabbed in Bulacan


A multi-million investment scammer was arrested by operatives of the Bulacan Provincial Intelligence Branch in Barangay Pagala in Baliuag, Bulacan on Monday.

Police identified the suspected as Ma. Lea Ulang, 29, a businesswoman and a resident of Barangay Layunan in Binangonan, Rizal.

Ulang was nabbed by virtue of a warrant of arrest for estafa.

The warrant was issued by Judge Mario Capelan of the Malolos City Regional Trial Court Branch 1.

Authorities said after Ulang’s arrest, one of her victims, identified as Rosemarie Guerero, immediately went to the Bulacan Police and lodged a complaint.

The victim said she and some others were persuaded by Ulang to put up their money in an investment which turned out to be fraudulent. More or less P13 million were taken from them by the suspect.

Ulang is temporarily placed under custody of the Bulacan Police Provincial Office for proper disposition while additional criminal complaints will be filed against her in court.—Ma. Angelica Garcia/LDF, GMA News
