  well, she admitted to say the account belongs to a "loanshark"
  so i believe it should be somewhat enough to get the police working

  I believe all that information is fake, except the mobile number, which is probably a sim card, and the bank account.

  Maybe she owe ah-long, that's why she say it's a loanshark account.
  
  So, in the end, money doesn't go to her pocket.
  
  Of course, she say this maybe also diao hu li san.
