VIP Bodyguard Services for Foreigners in Vietnam

Growing Demand for VIP Bodyguards from International Clients

Vietnam has seen a surge of foreign tourists, business travelers, investors, and public figures from the U.S., Japan, Korea, China, and European countries.

Key reasons for increasing demand for VIP Bodyguard Services:

• Rising foreign investment (FDI): Thousands of international investors visit Vietnam for site inspections, contract signing, and factory setup.

• International events & conferences: Vietnam hosts high-level events like APEC, ASEAN Summit, SEA Games, Miss Universe, etc.

• Luxury tourism expansion: High-end resorts in Phu Quoc, Da Nang, and Nha Trang attract wealthy travelers requiring private protection.

➡ According to PMV Security’s internal statistics, demand for VIP Bodyguard Services has increased 35% annually over the past three years.

Common Security Risks for International Clients in Vietnam

Although Vietnam is one of the safest countries in Southeast Asia, international visitors—especially VIPs—may still encounter potential risks:

• Financial scams & fake intermediaries

Fraudsters impersonate reputable organizations to request deposits or trick foreigners during service booking.

• Theft and pickpocketing

Certain crowded areas, night markets, or tourist hotspots may pose risks for clients carrying valuable items.

• Harassment or unwanted attention

Executives, celebrities, and politicians may face disturbances, stalking, or violations of privacy.

• Language & cultural barriers

Some clients require bodyguards who can also act as interpreters to prevent misunderstandings and ensure a comfortable experience.

PMV Security follows a standardized Risk Assessment Protocol combining trained personnel, modern equipment, and a 24/7 monitoring system.

Real Case Study: Detecting a Cross-Border Scam

In early 2025, PMV received a request from a supposed representative of a Hong Kong company. Initial communication appeared professional—until payment time.

The scammer sent a fake international transfer receipt with an amount higher than agreed, then pressured PMV to “refund the excess” to a personal bank account in Vietnam.

Warning signs:

• Fake transfer slip with altered details

• No incoming transaction detected in PMV’s account

• Continuous pressure to “refund quickly.”

Thanks to our strict financial protocol, PMV refused the request and blocked the scam attempt.

Background: A Service Request That Seemed Legitimate

The story began with a request for VIP Bodyguard Services from someone claiming to represent a large corporation in Hong Kong.
All early communication appeared genuine and well-structured:

• Detailed inquiry

• Professional discussions

• Protection plan consultation

• Quotation and bilingual contract

Both parties quickly agreed on the terms to proceed.

But the real issue surfaced when payment was required.

Warning Signs and “Red Flags” in the Transaction

Problems appeared at the deposit payment stage.
The individual sent an image, claiming it to be an international bank transfer receipt, via WhatsApp.

PMV’s team immediately noticed two major red flags:

1. The amount on the fake transfer slip was much higher

It exceeded the agreed deposit, clearly stated in the contract.

2. They pressured PMV to “refund” the excess amount

They insisted that PMV urgently return the alleged difference to a personal bank account in Vietnam, claiming it belonged to an “associate.”

This is one of the most common tactics in international financial fraud.

How PMV Responded – And the Strength of a Solid Process

By strictly following PMV’s financial control policy—
“Only confirm transactions when the funds have actually arrived in the company’s bank account.”
—Our team avoided acting hastily.

After careful verification, we identified clear signs of fraud:

• Fake documents

The transfer receipt showed signs of digital manipulation and lacked official bank confirmation.

• No actual transaction

System checks confirmed that no transfer was pending or received in PMV’s corporate account.

• Psychological pressure

The individual repeatedly called and messaged, urging PMV to “refund immediately,” attempting to force a mistake.
