A New Taipei City woman surnamed Liu pretended to an online acquaintance surnamed Chen that she worked at Taoyuan Airport and could get cigarettes at a preferential price. In this way, she fraudulently obtained NT$164,440. The victim sued Liu for damages, and the judge at the summary court of New Taipei District Court in Banciao District ruled that Liu must pay Chen NT$164,440, with leave to appeal.
The written judgment notes that Liu got to know Chen while shopping online in September last year. It says that she told Chen that she worked at the airport and could order cigarettes at a more preferential price through her supervisor, and in this way defrauded the victim of more than NT$160,000.
That is not all. Liu had plenty more tricks up her sleeve. As well as pretending to be an employee of the High Speed Rail and falsely claiming to post office employees, volunteers and others that she could buy High Speed Rail tickets at a staff price (50 percent off), she also repeatedly defrauded other victims by saying that her younger sister’s husband was a manager at the High Speed Rail Corporation and could buy High Speed Rail tickets at the staff rate.

In the criminal proceedings, the court of the first instance sentenced Liu to a one year and 11 months term of imprisonment, of which five months could be commuted to a fine. As to Chen, the victim who was tricked out of the largest sum of money, she sued Liu for damages, demanding that she return the amount of more than NT$16,000, but Liu said that because she is currently serving her sentence in jail, she cannot pay the money back as a lump sum.

新北市劉姓女子向陳姓女網友佯稱自己任職於桃園機場，可以取得優惠的香菸，詐得十六萬四千四百四十元，被害人提出求償，新北地院板橋簡易庭法官判劉女應給付十六萬四千四百四十元，可上訴。
判決書指出，去年九月間，劉女因網購原因，結識陳女，竟向陳女騙說，自己任職於機場，可透過主管代訂較優惠價格香菸，詐得十六萬餘元。
不僅如此，劉女花招百出，除佯稱自己是高鐵公司員工，向郵局員工及志工等人騙稱可以員工價格（即五折）購買高鐵車票，甚至拿說自己妹婿是高鐵公司經理，可以員工價格購買高鐵車票，不斷詐欺其他被害者。
刑事部分，一審法院依詐欺罪，判劉一年十一月徒刑，其中五個月得易科罰金；被騙最多的陳女提出求償，要求返還十六萬餘元，劉女卻說因目前在監執行，無力一次付清。

Long before modern highways crossed Taiwan’s rugged landscape, Chiayi’s Alishan Forest Railway pioneered the way through the mountains. Its tracks wound through a large forest of tall trees, offering stunning views of the region’s natural beauty. Let’s get aboard now and let the train carry us back to the early days of the railway, when the tracks were first laid through this wooded forest. After Japan took control of Taiwan in 1895, the government recognized the value of Alishan’s wood, but transporting timber from such rough terrain was no easy task. The railway skillfully dealt with the steep slopes
