However, the numbers they received turned out to be cancelled numbers or numbers that were already used. He changed his phone numbers multiple times and used 7 different bank accounts, as well as different Naver accounts. When some complained, he convinced fans that they could not receive money if they reported him, and fooled other victims into paying off his previous ones. Most victims were middle-high school students.
