Fa Baojun sorted out the fraud tricks that have occurred frequently recently.
Remind everyone to enhance their awareness of prevention.
Don't be deceived!
*One: Strange courier scams.
*2: Redemption of points fraud.
Setting up redemption points is a means adopted by many merchants in order to attract customers. However, ** uses this method to carry out fraudulent activities, focusing on "screaming to be scanned" *** or text messages with phishing ** links, which are often disguised as official ** or regular platforms to induce consumers to enter personal information such as ID numbers and credit card numbers. Once the information is stolen, it can be used to carry out skimming or fraud activities.
*3: "Jifu" and "red envelope" scams.
The Spring Festival is approaching, and "Jifu" and "grabbing red envelopes" have become hot topics on the Internet. However, some criminals took the opportunity to defraud and posted "Spring Festival subsidies are being distributed", "500 yuan vouchers" and "Jifu" pages on social **. When someone clicks, the winning prize will be displayed, and the prize or bonus is often exciting, once someone enters the bank card number and other personal information as required in order to receive the corresponding prize, all the funds in the card will be spent.
*Four: Loan fraud.
At the end of the year-end consumption season, use communication tools to disseminate information that loans can be provided. They often use high loans and low interest rates as bait to deceive their victims into trust. When the victim takes the bait, ** will ask the victim to transfer money under the pretext of "prepaid interest" and "security deposit". These tactics are extremely cunning, and they will bypass the victim's vigilance in various ways, allowing them to fall into a loan** without knowing it.
*5: Refund and change fraud.
Fraudsters illegally obtain the victim's boarding and boarding information, including name, ID number, flight frequency and other information, impersonate the staff of the airline, booking ** or travel agency, contact the victim through ** or text message, and use accurate flight information to deceive trust. Fraudsters often offer refunds or claims on the grounds of flight delays, ticket changes, etc., to induce victims to provide card information or accept screen sharing to transfer funds.
*Six: Internet scams.
With the popularity of online shopping, the web** has also become a new target for fraudsters. Approaching the end of the year, in the face of consumers who choose to place orders online for shopping, ** use the discount at the end of the year as a bait to induce consumers to shop and consume and defraud money. **Usually disguised as a regular merchant or a well-known brand**, it attracts consumers to buy at a low price, and then refuses to return or refund for various reasons.
So, how can you prevent being scammed?
Lawyer Zhang Xiaofeng, a partner of Beijing Jingjing Law Firm who has specialized in researching and handling fraud cases for many years and a member of the lawyer expert database of "Rule of Law", reminded that the types and methods of fraud crimes are emerging in an endless stream, and in order to prevent falling into the trap of fraud, first of all, we must maintain a high degree of vigilance, do not believe in any "low investment and high return" words, and do not believe in too good "money opportunities". Whether it is a rebate activity in a telecom fraud or a variety of investment opportunities in a fundraising fraud, before making a transfer and investment, the information should be further verified and searched on the Internet to see if the same scam has been used. If you encounter professional problems, it is best to consult a professional in advance, and do not trust the forwarding number provided by the other party or make a callback, otherwise you will fall further into the trap designed by the other team.
Second, protecting personal information is an important part of fraud prevention. Never give out personal information such as ID numbers, bank account numbers, credit card information, etc., especially without verifying the identity of the other party.
Thirdly, be wary of all kinds of telecom fraud, including ** from unfamiliar numbers, text messages involving clicking on links, etc. At the same time, strengthen the vigilance of social ** information to prevent the spread of false information through these channels.
Finally, maintaining good cybersecurity habits is also an important aspect of fraud prevention. Avoid accessing sensitive information on public web platforms, update your software regularly, use strong passwords, and avoid using the same password across multiple accounts.
If you are unfortunate enough to fall into a fraud trap, what should you do in the first place?
Zhang Xiaofeng further reminded that if you unfortunately fall into the trap of fraud, please quickly call "110" to call the police** and go to the nearby police station to report the case as soon as possible. It's important to remember that speed is of the essence and that every second counts against the clock against criminals. After arriving at the police station, please actively cooperate** and provide relevant fraud information, such as bank card account number, WeChat, Alipay, QQ number and other relevant information. This information will be a key clue to track down criminals, helping you recover your losses faster.
If there is a suspicion of fraud, you can go to the police station at any time for consultation, or call 110 for verification. In addition, the "National Anti-Fraud Center" app is easy to use, with functions such as reporting, early warning, identity verification and risk self-examination.
Again, please be extra cautious to avoid being scammed again. Fraudsters may call and claim to help recover money, but in fact try to defraud them of more money. The public security organs will not ** handle the case, nor will they ask for transfers, please be vigilant and beware of being deceived!
Approaching the end of the year, we must be highly vigilant against the "New Year's Festival" fraud, don't easily believe strangers, strangers, don't know the app, keep in mind that pies will not fall from the sky, everyone hold the "money bag" tightly, and don't give fraudsters a chance!
Finally, say the important thing three times.
Don't listen! Unbelief! No transfers!
Don't listen! Unbelief! No transfers!
Don't listen! Unbelief! No transfers!
*:Rule of law**.
