A woman in China who earned a modest 8,000 yuan (US$1,100) a month embezzled nearly 17 million yuan (US$2.4 million) to pay for a lavish lifestyle and undergo a range of cosmetic surgeries. The image-changing sessions took place four times a year over a six-year period and cost 300,000 yuan (US$42,000) each time. She also cultivated a wealthy image on social media, spending about two million yuan (US$278,000) a year on luxury goods. These included diamond bracelets worth more than 100,000 yuan and limited-edition crocodile skin handbags. She also gambled in Macau casinos. Wang's high-rolling, luxurious lifestyle came to a halt when the tax authorities made an unannounced visit to her company.
