Exposing a sophisticated surrogacy network
Recently, on June 28, the Criminal Police Department of Hanoi City Police said it had destroyed A line to organize surrogacy and gestational surrogacy operates sophisticatedly right on social networks. This line spreads its tentacles throughout all provinces and cities across the country, assigning specific tasks to each participant in the line. The leader of the female monster is Dinh Thi Binh, born in 1993, residing in Ward 414, building HH03C, Thanh Ha Urban Area, Cu Khe, Thanh Oai, Hanoi. Also supporting Binh is her husband Du Van Linh, born in 1990.

What is worthy It is said that in this surrogacy line, there are many surrogate women from rural areas who are healthy and have the ability to work but their circumstances are extremely difficult. They choose to become surrogate mothers to earn money to support their biological children who are still living in the countryside. There are even young student workers who follow the lure of brokers to enter the surrogacy ring. The amount of money they earn from this surrogacy is quite large, so despite violating the law, they still blindly risk becoming a tool and means to support the illegal business line of Dinh Thi Binh and her husband.
According to the case file, Dinh Thi Binh and her husband do not have a stable career. Binh himself, after many years of being married without children, had to use scientific methods to intervene. Initially, Binh searched social network groups to find out information about the surrogacy process and sell eggs and sperm to serve her own needs. After successfully giving birth, he realized that many people needed a surrogate mother because they could not give birth or many people needed money and wanted to be a surrogate to raise money to support their family. Binh began to have the idea of organizing a surrogate mother. Surrogates sell eggs for profit. Binh is the one who directly finds customers on websites and accepts them.
During the process of implementing the surrogacy contract, Binh directly contacts the customer on the one hand and hides information on the other. between the two surrogate mothers and the family in need of surrogacy in order to collect intermediary fees while avoiding both parties breaking the contract midway. An unwritten rule of commercial surrogacy lines is that information is kept secret between both the family in need of surrogacy and the surrogate mother. Surrogacy contracts often clearly state the terms of DNA testing within 24 hours after birth and the terms of “completely cutting off contact” immediately after birth…
After the initial agreements, Dinh Thi Binh organized meetings for people who want to become surrogate mothers to rent to families in need. In essence, these are selections – face to face, personality check, health check for the tenant to decide to “put down the money”.
To build trust with Binh customers renting an apartment in the building HH2B Thanh Ha Urban Area, Thanh Oai District, Hanoi to serve as a transaction place to receive customers to introduce its services. In this rented room, Binh decorated it like her and her husband’s private apartment to arrange “meetings” between guests and the surrogate mother. At the same time, we appointed a few more pregnant surrogates to receive guests with us to create trust for customers about previous successful transactions.
In addition to the main room rented as a place Receiving guests, Binh also rented two apartments in Thanh Ha Urban Area to organize the raising of surrogate mothers and sell eggs. Each room was divided by Binh into small cells with plaster partitions that fit exactly one bed for the surrogate women to live in. To avoid being discovered, Binh wisely never recruited strangers as surrogate mothers. Most of them are known to each other or through a matchmaker.
Binh also constantly changes the matchmaker’s location and is equipped with cameras spread from the gate to every corner of the house. Each location, Binh only allows a maximum of 3 surrogate mothers and appoints a manager while Binh manages the house through a camera system. During the surrogacy period, Binh absolutely does not allow the surrogate to go out or contact anyone to avoid the case of the surrogate selling her eggs and running away.
At clinics Points for women who are “waiting for customers” Binh regularly gives ovulation stimulating drugs for sale. The price for each egg sale is about 22 million VND. Each time, many eggs can be retrieved which will then be screened to create embryos. The entire egg stimulation and egg retrieval process is performed at hospitals. In case the eggs cannot be sold, Binh will deposit them in banks to store eggs and sperm at hospitals, waiting for them to be sold when there is a customer.
To legalize the records of both the customer and the surrogate mother. Dinh Thi Binh and her husband also organized a sophisticated ring of making fake documents including marriage certificates to legalize surrogacy, certificates of marital status, hospital admission papers, birth certificates… Searched at In a place where surrogate mothers of this ring are kept captive, the police discovered a machine that created 55 round silicon stamps from many hospitals, medical examination and treatment facilities, People’s Committees and police at all levels in provinces and cities across the country. Many countries have their names and titles stamped, the marriage certificate template… This is a service tool jobs fake documents to legalize documents.
Playing the role of producing fake documents is Dinh Thi Thien, born in 1995; Nguyen Ba Minh was born in 1990 and is Binh’s younger brother and brother-in-law. During their activities, Dinh Thi Thien and Nguyen Ba Minh also forged many types of diplomas and certificates and then sold them online for 500,000 to 1 million VND to make a profit.
More sophisticated to To avoid detection of fake documents, Dinh Thi Thien and Nguyen Ba Minh practiced copying the signatures of leaders of hospitals, medical examination and treatment facilities, leaders of People’s Committees and Police of provinces and cities. Therefore, the fake documents in the file all have “fresh” signatures.
In search of another place where surrogate mothers were kept in captivity, the police discovered 7 women living in a concentration camp. here. Among them, there are 5 pregnant women with many documents such as medical examination registration, hospital discharge certificate, marriage certificate, surrogacy contract sample payment receipts and payment books for surrogate women.< /p>
Based on investigation documents collected by the Criminal Police Department of Hanoi City Police, they urgently arrested Dinh Thi Binh, Du Van Linh, Dinh Thi Thien and Nguyen Ba Minh for organizing the pregnancy. households for commercial purposes. Two subjects, Dinh Thi Thien and Nguyen Ba Minh, were additionally arrested for forging seals and documents of organizations.
It’s still difficult to control surrogacy
Decree No. 10/2015/ND-CP regulating childbirth using in vitro fertilization (IVF) and conditions for surrogacy for humanitarian purposes officially takes effect from March 15, 2015. Accordingly, infertile couples have to spend from 6 months to more than 1 year waiting for their application to be reviewed before they have the opportunity to be allowed to have a surrogate mother. In addition, a surrogate mother must be a relative of the wife or husband’s side to be a surrogate mother. Because of strict regulations, many couples cannot meet all the procedures, forcing them to seek surrogacy “services” that are widespread online.
Not only is it illegal to perform surrogacy services Surrogacy carries many risks for both the person requesting the pregnancy and the person performing the service. Currently, the development of social networks makes this brokerage activity stronger and more difficult to fight. Brokers often use “junk” phone numbers and virtual social network accounts to operate and rarely appear, so it is difficult to determine their identity.
Just type the phrase “service surrogacy” or “surrogacy service” on the website, there are dozens of closed groups with the number of members ranging from a few tens to hundreds of thousands of members. Inside these groups, there are heated discussions about infertility cases and treatment methods…
According to the reporter’s research, a surrogacy case costs from 300 – 450 million VND/shift. The surrogate mother must be under 40 years old. But the price also depends on the customer’s service package. If feeding in Vietnam will have a different price, if going to Cambodia for embryo transfer, there will be a different price. Conditions for surrogacy are also very simple. People who want to be a surrogate only need to send information related to year of birth, height, weight and number of births (normal birth or cesarean section) for the broker to “assess”. .
