In a crackdown on illegal cross-border employment in Hong Kong, four women have been arrested for allegedly selling makeup, photography, and tour-guide services through social media. The Immigration Department conducted an undercover operation in the run-up to the National Day Golden Week holiday. Officers posing as customers identified suspicious accounts offering one-stop packages at popular tourist attractions in Hong Kong.
The four arrested women, aged between 20 and 31, claimed to provide various services, including makeup, hairdressing, photography, and tour guidance. They charged between HK$400 and HK$600 per session, often requiring an upfront deposit. The suspects used personal social media accounts to attract customers and operated from within Hong Kong. All four were charged with breaching their conditions of stay and will face legal proceedings.
