A woman in Fuzhou was cheated by more than 500 million yuan after receiving a call from the self-proclaimed “public security” and “Procuratorate. Fuzhou police issued an early warning yesterday that there have been many cases of swindlers pretending to be public security officers in Rongcheng recently, and reminded the public to keep their personal identity information properly. Anyone who claims to be a member of public security authorities, and through telephone, text messages require citizens to transfer their deposits to the so-called “security accounts” for review are all frauds. A piece of “wanted order” made her trust each other completely. At the beginning of March this year, Ms. Chen from Fuzhou received a phone call from other places. The other party claimed to be an employee of a telecommunications company, saying that Ms. Chen had an overdue payment of more than 2,000 yuan for the phone opened in Shanghai. “I don’t have a phone call from Shanghai at all.” Ms. Chen said that after her explanation, the other party asked her to clarify to the Shanghai public security organ. The phone just hung up. A man who claimed to be officer Wang contacted Ms. Chen, saying that he was wanted for money laundering. “On the phone, the man asked about my bank account and the number of deposits in each account.” Ms. Chen said that next, she received another call claiming to be the attorney general. “At the beginning, I didn’t believe it very much.” Ms. Chen said that the other party asked her to open a room in the hotel and used the hotel computer to log on to the designated website to check the “wanted order”. After seeing the “wanted order”, Ms. Chen completely believed the other party. In the following period of time, the swindler asked Ms. Chen to provide the SMS verification code and electronic scrambler dynamic password for each transfer transaction on the excuse of checking account funds, paying security deposit, and returning funds, to transfer the funds in Ms. Chen’s account. By the beginning of April, Ms. Chen was cheated out of more than 500 million yuan. Public security law will never let citizens transfer money Yesterday, the reporter learned from Fuzhou police that in recent times, besides Ms. Chen, Mr. Lin, a man in Fuzhou, was also cheated by the swindler by more than 200 million yuan in the same way, fuzhou women’s European ladies were cheated out of more than 500,000 yuan. Fuzhou police said that in these scams, the so-called public security officers were all counterfeits, and the calls they made were also modified by the number changing software. With this set of software, the swindler can pretend to be a public security law, telecommunications, postal staff, and call the citizen’s personal phone number. In such fraud cases, the swindlers usually ask the victims not to tell their relatives and friends about the matter on the grounds of confidentiality, or directly ask the victims to open a room in the hotel, and use the hotel network to log on to the designated website to check the so-called “wanted order” and so on. The “wanted order” is actually fake. The swindler asked citizens to open rooms in the hotel in order to avoid outsiders reminding victims and ensure the success of the scam. The police reminded the public to keep their personal identity information properly. First of all, personal name, ID number, address and family member information should not be registered on unknown websites at will to prevent identity information from being leaked. Secondly, don’t trust strangers to call. Public Security Law organs do not have the so-called “security account”. In the process of handling a case, they will not ask for personal account information by phone, let alone require the victim to transfer money to the so-called “security account”. When receiving suspicious calls, citizens can also call Fujian police anti-fraud hotline 96110-8 for consultation. (Haidu reporter Wu Zhen correspondent Rong Police)
