骗中国女友600万元 喀麦隆留学生获刑14年并被驱逐出境 | African student faces deportation
判决书显示，北京创业的胡女士，与喀麦隆籍清华在读博士生卫力，通过相亲网站认识后相恋并交往。在两人交往的两年中，胡女士为卫力支付生活费、学费、住宿费、实习费、抚养费、工程师费、全家医疗费共计数百万元。
在卫力的劝说下，胡女士将自己在北京价值上千万的房子抵押贷款、出卖，让其在喀麦隆、巴黎等地为自己投资房产。
但到头来，胡女士发现自己被骗了。卫力并没有如他自己所言的牛津硕士学历，也没拿自己的钱真的去巴黎投资，更没有去联合国环境署实习。
在胡女士报案后，北京市人民检察院以诈骗罪对卫力提起公诉。其查明，2014年8月至2016年7月，被告人卫力多次骗取被害人钱款共计人民币600余万元。
2017年底，北京市第三中级人民法院对被告卫力作出有期徒刑14年、罚金14万元并附加驱逐出境的判决。
A Cameroonian student who was studying at Beijing’s Tsinghua University has been sentenced to 14 years of imprisonment with hefty fines and will be expelled from the country after he was convicted of the crime of fraud, according to Beijing News on Monday.
The Beijing 3rd Intermediate People’s Court made the verdict that the student, named Ossima Meko’o Frank Wilfrid had to pay a 140,000-yuan (around 20,700 US dollars) fine within ten days and will be expelled after he finishes the imprisonment. Wilfred’s banking accounts in China have also been frozen.

Wilfrid was met by Hu, an entrepreneur in Beijing on a matchmaking website in 2013 and developed a relationship one year later. Over the past four years, Wilfred has swindled around six million yuan (around 890,000 US dollars) out of Hu.
According to the court judgment which is left open to the public on the court’s website, Wilfred lied that he got his Master’s Degree at Oxford University and was recommended to study at Harvard for post-doctoral program by UN Environment and to have an internship at UN, so he needed financial support from Hu. He also said that he needed money to buy a house in Paris after they got married and to invest in a restaurant in Cameroon.
To meet Wilfred’s multiple requests, Hu was said to have sold her house in Beijing and even paid Wilfred’s living expenses and tuition fees in Beijing.
On the court, the country’s embassy in China confirmed that Wilfred had read the postgraduate at Beijing Normal University instead of Oxford while the investigations from the Beijing Municipal Public Security Bureau and Beijing People’s Procuratorate showed no record of exit to France from Wilfred and proved that he transferred the money from Hu to bank accounts in Cameroon and other accounts in Beijing.
Based on evidence and defense, the court defined Wilfred’s claims of investment and internship and house purchasing in Paris as a crime of fraud according to the country’s criminal law.
