On January 31, 2024, Xiao Gong was chatting on his mobile phone at home during the holiday, and a stranger who claimed to be a "Beijing policeman" added Xiao Gong's WeChat friend and sent him a police ID**. The other party said that Xiao Gong was suspected of fraud and asked to use the mobile phone of the adults in the family to cooperate with the investigation.
Xiao Gong believed it and used his grandfather's mobile phone to send more than 400 yuan of red envelopes to the other party. When they are required to transfer large amounts of money and need to scan their faces, they are discovered and stopped by parents in time.
