The Spring Festival is approaching, and everyone should also be vigilant when they are relaxing and happy during the holiday. Today, let's sort out several types of high-incidence online telecom fraud. It is a cliché to be cautious in online dating, but once you really start chatting with strange beauties on the Internet, some people will still let go of their caution, or even ignore it, and finally put themselves in it and fall into the trap of extortion. Let's take a look at a case cracked in Zhengzhou, Henan.
Late-night online chat unexpectedly fell into blackmail**
Mr. Wang reported to the Zhengzhou Guancheng Public Security Bureau, saying that he had been defrauded of 170,000 yuan. It turned out that Mr. Wang couldn't sleep in the middle of the night, clicked on the dating software, and saw that a girl's appearance was exactly what he wanted, and he couldn't help but be tempted to add the other party.
In the next few days, Mr. Wang and the girl interacted frequently, sharing their daily routines, and the relationship between the two quickly warmed up. The girl told Mr. Wang that she usually started a live broadcast in the online live broadcast room, and invited Mr. Wang to broadcast live and help like it.
Fan Kunpeng, director of the Longhai Road Police Station of the Guancheng Branch of the Zhengzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau: **After that, the other party asked him to ** an app on his mobile phone first, because he can use this app to free traffic**.
Chang Liang, police officer of the Longhai Road Police Station of the Guancheng Branch of the Zhengzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau: Some Trojan viruses were implanted into the victim's address book.
After Mr. Wang**app,The girl proposed to talk to him**,And called**Invited,Mr. Wang, who felt that he had found true love, immediately agreed,With the deepening of the chat,The content of the chat between the two gradually became ambiguous,Under the other party's **,Mr. Wang began to chat with her on a large scale with apprehension.
Chang Liang, police officer of the Longhai Road Police Station of the Guancheng Branch of the Zhengzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau: The other party seduced him step by step, and she *** has the kind of ** screenshot by the other party, and then let the victim transfer money after the screenshot, if you don't transfer the money, I will send this ** to your family and your colleagues.
At this time, Mr. Wang realized that he had been defrauded, but in the face of the other party's threats and intimidation, Mr. Wang, who was worried about his personal privacy being made public, chose to transfer money to the other party again and again.
Victim Mr. Wang: I was scared at that time, so I gave her the money and divided it into 4 to 5 transfers, about 170,000 yuan.
The money was transferred again and again, but the other party did not mean to stop, and continued to blackmail Mr. Wang, at this time Mr. Wang understood that this was a bottomless pit, so he chose to call the police.
Check the flow of funds and dig out the money laundering gang that "runs away from points".
After receiving Mr. Wang's report, Zhengzhou** received several reports of the same situation in a row. ** Immediately launched an investigation, starting with the flow of funds.
The police found that almost all of the money lost by these victims was transferred to the names of several bank card accounts, and then locked the cardholder of one of the bank card accounts, Qiao.
The police quickly arrested Qiao, and according to Qiao's confession, he was a first-class card owner, that is, the person responsible for providing bank cards, mobile phone cards and other tools in telecommunications network fraud cases.
The first-level card owner only needs to provide a few bank cards, and each time he helps transfer 10,000 yuan, he can get a "commission" of 200 yuan to 400 yuan. Such a part-time job with simple operation and quick money is also called "running points" by insiders.
Chang Liang, police officer of the Longhai Road Police Station of the Guancheng Branch of the Zhengzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau: According to our usual experience in handling cases, the cardholders of the first-class cards are generally not the main suspects of fraud, and they are all middlemen who use "running points" to launder money.
The police followed the vine, and a "running score" gang headed by Li to help overseas fraudsters launder money surfaced. It is reported that since 2022, Li has been exposed to money laundering fraud under the introduction of his fellow townsman.
Under the guidance of overseas criminal suspects, Li tried an order and quickly got the rebate, after tasting the sweetness, Li felt that it was too slow to make money alone, so he mobilized Luo around him to do it with himself, and Luo Mou successively pulled many people into the gang.
Later, with the addition of technician Yuan, a "running score" gang led by Li, Luo, Yuan and others gradually took shape. Mr. Li used chat software to contact overseas fraud gangs and receive money laundering instructions; Luo recruited a large number of first-class card owners to launder money laundering "running points"; Yuan is responsible for the technical support of the money laundering link. After identifying all 28 members of the gang, the police quickly closed the net.
* A total of 28 suspects such as Luo, Li, and Yuan were arrested, and all suspects confessed to the facts of the crime, and the amount of money involved in the "running points" gang reached more than 4 million yuan within 3 months, and the average age of the gang was only 21 years old.
Fan Kunpeng, director of the Longhai Road Police Station of the Guancheng Branch of the Zhengzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau: Give your personal information to others, and then let the criminals take advantage of it and make profits, use personal bank cards, and then carry out money laundering and bleaching by the wire fraud group, and become a tool for the crime of the wire fraud group.
At present, the court sentenced the main suspects such as Li, Luo, and Yuan to fixed-term imprisonment ranging from three to six years for the crime of covering up and concealing criminal proceeds.
The elderly were defrauded of millions of yuan by the fake police, and his hands trembled with fright
When encountered, do not transfer, call the police quickly, this is the right choice. In Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, there is an octogenarian couple who fell into the fake police**, fortunately, the old man saw the anti-fraud slogan in the community on the first day to raise his vigilance, and after thinking for a night, the old man called the police in time and saved millions of savings.
Recently, in Nanjing, Jiangsu Province, at more than 5 o'clock in the morning, an 80-year-old man went to the Ruijin Road Police Station to call the police, and he asked the police for help that his wife had suffered from telecommunications network fraud, and his wife cried many times to ask him not to call the police.
Ji Jianhua, police officer of Ruijin Road Police Station, Qinhuai Branch of Nanjing Municipal Public Security Bureau: The uncle came here without telling the aunt, and the situation at that time was that the aunt received a fraud at home, and the other party claimed to be the public security organ in Changsha, and if they didn't do what they said, they would take the old couple to Changsha for trial. If you cooperate, **chat will do.
Policeman Mr. Yang: I said that I have a mobile phone starting with 188 under my name, and I have sent more than 10,000 fraudulent text messages, and the other party said that all my mobile phone numbers will be shut down according to the law. One investigation said that I was also suspected of a major criminal case, the crime of child abduction and trafficking, and I was suspected of being the principal offender.
The criminals repeatedly threatened the two elderly people to keep the matter secret and not to call the local **, and also asked Mr. Yang to buy a new mobile phone and keep in touch with each other 24 hours a day.
Mr. Yang: I didn't dare to call the police during the day, because this mobile phone kept monitoring me, so I wanted to get up this morning and go to the police at night. They came to contact me because they had to go to work at 8 o'clock this morning.
According to the police, Mr. Yang had gone to the bank several times to withdraw his fixed deposit certificate before reporting the case, and transferred more than 1 million yuan of savings to the same bank card.
Ji Jianhua, police officer of Ruijin Road Police Station, Qinhuai Branch of Nanjing Municipal Public Security Bureau: The other party said that in order to cooperate with the investigation of the public security organs and see if the funds were obtained from fraudulent funds, all bank card accounts under his name should be linked. My uncle saw the anti-telecom fraud slogan in the community the first day, and after he went back, he was a little suspicious, and came to call the police at 5 o'clock in the morning the next day. If you don't come to the police that day, you will contact him at **o'clock that day**, and you may transfer the money through a kind of trick.
Because Mr. Yang reported the incident to the police, the criminals were ultimately unable to succeed. In order to dispel the doubts of Mr. Yang's wife, the police rushed to Mr. Yang's home at 9 o'clock in the morning of the same day and reminded the two elderly people of anti-fraud safety again.
How does the "1 yuan snap auction" become nearly 10,000 yuan transaction? Serial bluff!
When the holiday season comes, many young people will take advantage of their free time to shop online for consumption. If you see a product like "snapping", don't be too impulsive, maybe it's a trap. Mr. Zhang, who lives in Changzhou, Jiangsu Province, was defrauded during live shopping, saying that the goods that were "1 yuan to grab the auction" became 9,999 yuan when paying, not only was he deceived of nearly 10,000 yuan, not to mention, there were a series of traps waiting for him behind.
Mr. Zhang is an antique ceramics lover, on the evening of January 10, he grabbed an antique ceramic vase in the live broadcast room of a platform for 1 yuan**, but after the payment was completed, he was dumbfounded, and the 1 yuan auction became a transaction of 9999 yuan.
Mr. Zhang immediately contacted the seller to ask for a refund, but the seller replied that he had not received the order and blocked him. Mr. Zhang immediately called the police after realizing that he had been deceived, and the police stopped the payment of the money in time after receiving the police, and then the police contacted the official customer service of the platform, and it was the official customer service break time.
Just when the police were making a record for Mr. Zhang, the seller ** in the live broadcast room contacted Mr. Zhang and asked Mr. Zhang to add his WeChat, claiming that he could refund 9,999 yuan. Mr. Zhang, who was about to add WeChat, was stopped by the police in time.
Shen Yuanqiang, Community Sergeant of Yonghong Police Station, Zhonglou Branch of Changzhou Public Security Bureau: If you want to return the purchase, then the funds will be returned in the original way, and I don't need to add someone else's WeChat separately.
At 8 o'clock the next morning, after the police contacted the official platform, the deceived money was returned to Mr. Zhang's account.
According to **, the wrong auction price in the live broadcast room is just a bait for fraudsters**, and their purpose is to contact the deceived person privately for a refund in the future, and then further commit fraud for various reasons.
Shen Yuanqiang, Community Sergeant of Yonghong Police Station, Zhonglou Branch of Changzhou Public Security Bureau: When people shop online, once they encounter the wrong order, or this kind of customer service does not refund, or the express delivery is lost, or the shopping is refunded, everyone must not privately add these customer service, express delivery, and WeChat of the agency that are impersonated by ** drainage, or share the screen with the other party. You should call 110 in time or communicate with the official platform in time, so as to help yourself recover your losses.
In order to make everyone feel at ease during the Spring Festival, we have also sorted out the ** for the high incidence of holidays and reminded everyone to be careful.
The first is ticket change fraud: ** pretending to be the airline's customer service to trick ticket buyers into making remittance operations many times on the grounds of "flight cancellation, providing refund and change services", and committing serial fraud. There are also in the name of the popular entertainment program group, ** winning the short message, and then committing fraud under various excuses such as paying handling fees and deposits.
* Remind everyone to keep in mind the principle of "three nos and one more" to prevent telecom fraud: do not click on unknown links, do not trust strange calls, do not disclose personal information, verify transfers and remittances, and report to ** in time when encountering fraud, so as not to miss the window period for recovering losses.
