According to the "Economic **" report on February 18, recently, the People's Procuratorate of Zhuji City, Zhejiang Province handled a fraud case. Mr. Xie, a self-employed businessman, received a strange **, and the other party claimed to be a staff member of the ** department, and asked him to declare the annual report in time. Since the other party had the relevant information, Mr. Xie believed it and paid a declaration fee of 228 yuan after paying attention to the *** provided by the other party. Later, Mr. Xie called back to inquire about the progress of the process, and found that ** could not be reached, and WeChat *** had also expired, so he called the police. In this fraud case, more than 30,000 enterprises and individual industrial and commercial households were defrauded, with a total amount of more than 6.6 million yuan.
The annual report is an information disclosure mechanism for business entities to report relevant information such as business status, number of employees, and asset status to the regulatory authorities and society, but it is used as a medium for fraud by some people. In recent years, almost every year, business entities have fallen into the trap of annual report fraud, which has attracted the most attention. This should arouse the attention and reflection of all parties.
Usually, the first half of the year is the statutory annual reporting period, which is often the active period for some fraudsters. Most of them pretend to be market supervision and other departments to accurately send reminders and urge annual reports and other information to business entities, so as to defraud the annual report fees or fines for overdue annual reports, or send false annual report platform links to obtain sensitive information of business entities and introduce business entities into the chain**.
The deception of the annual report ** is difficult to say clever, but it can be successfully succeeded repeatedly, which is the result of the superposition of multiple factors. First, many business entities are not familiar with the process, conditions and standards of annual reports, and do not pay much attention to the official annual report information and relevant risk warning information; Second, some business entities have loopholes in information protection in relevant links, or fail to strictly and standardize their information protection obligations, which provides opportunities for fraudsters to take advantage of; Third, the relevant social platforms and communication operators are not in place to screen and intercept the fraudulent information of the annual report or the suspected fraudulent information of the annual report; In addition, the relevant departments are still insufficient in the publicity and guidance of the annual report, and the path of the annual report is not simple and smooth enough......
To prevent and curb the annual report and protect the relevant rights and interests of business entities, it is necessary to aim at the above-mentioned "** to prescribe the right medicine." For example, the market supervision department, industry associations, self-employed workers' associations, etc., can widely publicize the path, platform, conditions and other information of the annual report of the business entity through a variety of media, so that the business entity is fully aware of the zero-fee attribute of the annual report, and at the same time, it can be combined with the annual report fraud cases released by the judicial department, dissect the best routine, and sound the alarm for the business entity by using the case to explain the case; Public security, procuratorate, law and other departments should carry out special governance against annual report fraud and information leakage, theft, reselling and other behaviors of business entities, cut off the chain of interests, and make criminals pay the necessary legal costs; Social platforms, self-leading platforms, communication operators, etc., should strengthen the attention and research and judgment of annual report fraud information, jointly determine the sensitive keywords of annual report fraud information with market supervision and other departments and dynamically adjust them, and on this basis, use intelligent + manual methods to complete the screening and interception of sensitive keywords; Business entities should enhance their awareness of prevention and vigilance, take the initiative to learn about the official information and precautions of the annual report, be familiar with the relevant processes and operational essentials, and be the first person responsible for resisting and preventing fraud, etc. In addition, it is necessary for the market supervision department to comply with the needs of business entities, further simplify the annual report process and matters, and do a good job in relevant training and guidance.
The annual report is related to the legal obligations and vital interests of a large number of business entities, and all relevant parties should share the responsibility and form a joint force to make the annual report simpler, more convenient and safer, rather than repeatedly becoming an "annual circular drama".
