Police arrested a man on Monday suspected of swindling 20 million yuan ($3.2 million) by posing as a rich woman, Nanchang Evening News reported.
The man, 27, from Yugan posed as a rich Hong Kong woman who wanted to find a man on the mainland to impregnate her as her husband is infertile.
Candidates could receive 500,000 yuan as a fee and would get 1.5 million yuan after the “woman” had a baby, according to the man’s advertisement. But candidates first had to hand in 500 yuan for a physical examination.
