Spring break is coming up in about ten days, are you ready to travel? In the past few days, ** has been eyeing our plane tickets again.
The 300 yuan compensation for the ticket change has not yet arrived, but the loan of 200,000 yuan has been borrowed.
On January 21, Mr. Li from Sichuan came to Hangzhou on a business trip, and he had to go back early the next morning, and in the afternoon of the same day, he received a letter from the airline staff **, saying that the plane was out of order, the landing gear was broken, and asked him to change the book, and he had to compensate him 300 yuan.
When the Jianqiao Police Station received a report from Mr. Li, he not only did not receive 300 yuan in compensation, but also took out a loan of 200,000 yuan.
Police officer Cen Dong arrived at the scene and found that Mr. Li really had a loan record of 200,000 yuan on his mobile phone.
Mr. Li said that after receiving **, he didn't think much about it, just according to what the airline staff said, "Tell me to go down this and that, I'm down", Mr. Li ** the meeting app, and then opened the screen sharing function, according to the other party said step by step, "He said that if I want to compensate, I want to verify the personal credit problem, and send a link", Mr. Li operated according to what the other party said, and the other party sent an account number, which was shown to be an account opened by Minsheng Bank.
At this time, Mr. Li received a text message on his mobile phone, prompting him to borrow 200,000 yuan from the loan platform. He was reluctant to do it again.
The other party threatened: "You will bear the consequences", and Mr. Li called the police.
Fortunately, your money hasn't been transferred out yet, it's still there, just return the money to the platform quickly", Cen Dong found that the 200,000 yuan on the bank card was still there through the linkage of the anti-fraud commissioner in the office.
After the police station came forward, Mr. Li repaid the loan of 200,000 yuan on the same day, and from the interest point of view, the loan interest was still quite high, and 19 yuan of interest was deducted in a few hours.
"Ticket Refund and Change" Scam
This is a "ticket refund and change" scam, which is divided into three steps:
Step 1: Fraudsters first obtain flight information including the victim's name, ID number, boarding time, flight frequency, etc. through illegal channels. Before the victim boarded the plane, he pretended to be the staff of the airline, booking **, etc., contacted the victim by calling ** or sending a message, and deceived the victim's trust by accurately providing the victim's boarding information.
Step 2: After initially defrauding trust, fraudsters will take the initiative to offer "refunds" or "claims" on the grounds of "flight delays" and "ticket changes". Subsequently, the fraudsters will induce the victim to provide a bank card number and accept "screen sharing" under the guise of "verifying" account information and ticket purchase records, and further grasp the victim's information, including bank cards, through "screen sharing".
Step 3: Next, fraudsters will use the guise of "credit verification", "verification of account security", "swiping to ensure that the claim channel is smooth", etc., to arbitrage transaction verification codes, induce transfers, and finally transfer funds to commit fraud.
In the inducement transfer link, there are different routines.
Some**in,**will send a**link in the conference room,Say this is the official website of the customer service center,After the victim enters**, register bank card and other information according to the prompts,**will then display such as insufficient authority of the account, at this time, the customer service said that the transfer will be transferred to supplement the flow for "identity authentication", and also promised that the transferred money will be returned in full after an hour, etc., once transferred, the money will be quickly transferred away layer by layer.
Orange Persimmon Interactive reminds many times that once screen sharing is turned on, it is equivalent to running naked on the mobile phone, and the card number and password and other information you enter can be mastered.
Also**, the link sent is phishing**, and the bank card information you enter is actually **to get your bank card account and password, and the money on the card will be transferred immediately after you get it.
**Why can you know the itinerary in an "unpredictable way"?
Like the above**, Mr. Li traveled early the next morning, why could he know the itinerary "uncertainly"?
Ticket refund and change"** is a precise "targeted fraud". In the case that has been issued, the ** pretending to be the customer service can accurately state the victim's identity information and flight information in **, and the victim believes it to be true.
Some of the passengers who were deceived booked tickets from third-party platforms, and some purchased tickets directly on the airline's official website.
According to the analysis of the police, there are two main possibilities for the leakage of accurate flight information: one is the relevant booking ** insider, who obtains the information through its own authority and sells it online; The other is to use hacking methods to obtain passenger booking information by attacking ticket booking**, and then sell it.
Nanjing** once caught a "ticket change" fraud gang. **We obtain a large number of civil aviation passenger booking information at 15 yuan each**, and after classifying them according to the boarding time, they choose the opportunity to ** "flight cancellation" SMS to commit fraud.
Since last year, the "ticket refund and change" scam has a new feature, that is, the time of the fraud is getting closer and closer to the departure time of the deceived person, and some are a day or even a few hours in advance. ** It is "psychological warfare": the closer to the departure time, the easier it is to create tension and make the deceived person have no time to think.
This type of ** often occurs during winter and summer vacations or during severe weather such as rain and snow. Like these days, there is rain and snow in many places across the country, and many stations and airports have flight and train delay or cancellation information, which is easy to take advantage of.
**Reminder
If you receive a flight cancellation and need to change or refund your ticket** or text message, be sure to verify it through the official ** or APP, and don't believe the link in the other party's text message or *** Don't click on an unfamiliar link.
The refund is generally returned to the original payment channel, and it must be a fraud if it encounters such as deposit, verification transfer, and credit brushing.
Do not turn on "screen sharing" with strangers, and keep your personal ID card, bank card, transaction verification code and other information safe.
