Zhou Yuan, who lives in central Hunan province, teaches women to enhance their sexual appeal.
She is alleged to have earned 24 million yuan (US$3.5 million) from selling her on and offline courses, Red Star News reported.
Zhou’s account, with 200,000 followers, was banned in January for promoting “vulgar content”.
However, internet users noticed that she had resurfaced on social media in March using a new account “nihao zhoudabao”, which means “Hello, Big Baby Zhou”.
Zhou live-streamed on March 8 and March 18 and sold her previously viral online courses.
