A woman in Fuzhou was recently cheated out of more than 500 million yuan by people claiming to be public security and procuratorate on the phone. Fuzhou police issued an early warning reminder today, emphasizing that “anyone who claims to be a staff member of public security and law organs and requests to review personal deposit accounts by phone or text message, or requires transfer and remittance, is a fraud, please don’t believe it.” According to Fuzhou police, at the beginning of March this year, the victim Chen received a phone call from the staff of the fake telecom company, saying that she had an overdue payment of more than 2,000 yuan for the phone opened in Shanghai. After Chen denied, the swindler advised her to clarify the facts to the Shanghai police on the grounds that her personal identity information might be stolen. Later, a person who claimed to be officer Wang contacted Chen, saying that she was wanted for money laundering. The swindler took the deposit information of Chen’s personal account on the grounds of investigating the stolen money involved. Next, Chen received a phone call claiming to be the attorney general, and tricked her into opening a room in the hotel and using the hotel computer to log on to the designated website to view the “wanted order”. After Chen believed it, the swindler asked her to provide the SMS verification code and electronic scrambler dynamic password for each transfer transaction with many excuses such as checking account funds, paying security deposit, and returning funds, to transfer the funds in his account. When Chen reported the case in early April, he was cheated out of more than 500 million yuan. Although the swindler’s deception has been an old routine, some people are still cheated from time to time. Fuzhou police revealed that in addition to the above-mentioned case of Chen MOU being cheated, in March this year, Fuzhou man Lin MOU was also cheated by more than 200 million yuan in the same way, and Fuzhou woman Ou Mou was cheated by more than 500,000 yuan. According to the analysis of the police, the swindlers used the network virtual phone that can display any telephone number to pretend to be the telecommunication and postal staff to call the citizen’s mobile phone, and used the telephone or water charges, network, closed-circuit television and other overdue payments, the email has not been checked and other reasons lie that the personal identity data of citizens has been stolen. After obtaining the personal information of the victim, the swindler then pretended to be a public security law, Bank of China and other government department staff suspected of money laundering, drug trafficking, murder and other crimes as the victim was stolen, on the grounds of supervising bank accounts or reviewing funds, the victim is required to transfer the funds in the bank to the so-called “safe account” provided by the swindler. In such fraud cases, the swindler may even fax false official documents to the victim or induce the victim to log on to the website of the false procuratorate to check the wanted notice to defraud the victim’s trust. The police warned that don’t trust strangers to call. Public Security Law organs do not have the so-called “security account”. In the process of handling cases, they will not ask for personal account information by phone, let alone require the parties to transfer money to the so-called “security account”. When receiving such threatening phone calls, don’t be nervous and afraid. It is best to ventilate with relatives and friends.
