During the "epidemic" period of the war, we saw through the new pattern of fraud
"Fancy" fraud routine
01
Using online class to cheat
During the epidemic period, the school was postponed and "closed without suspension". Illegal elements took advantage of this, pretended to be teachers and infiltrated into QQ group to cheat on the basis of "online teaching fees", or stole personal information through SMS. Students should take the initiative to verify the authenticity of the notice if they receive payment or provide personal information. Before payment, further confirmation shall be made through telephone contact with the school and teachers, and no payment shall be made to the stranger's account.
02
Falsely claiming that relatives and friends are infected
Because of the epidemic situation, some people failed to return home in time. The lawbreakers took advantage of this, pretended to be medical workers, relatives, friends and so on, called to falsely claim that some family members were infected with the new type of coronary pneumonia and were quarantined, and required to remit the medical fees for treatment, payment of hospitalization fees and other behaviors, but once your money was transferred into the "designated account", it will never come back! Students, when receiving the relevant notice information, remember to confirm with relatives or their units through various channels, and do not rush to make payment.
03
Selling epidemic prevention and control materials
During the period of epidemic prevention and control, the illegal elements make use of the public's urgent psychological need for masks, alcohol, disinfectant and other anti epidemic supplies, falsely claim that they can buy or store anti epidemic materials such as masks through wechat group and other ways, induce the victims to pay, and then find various reasons to refuse to deliver or directly blackmail, so as to cheat money.
04
Promotion of novel coronavirus pneumonia "specific drugs"
By using the psychology of panic and credulity, the illegal elements pretend to be government agencies, disease control departments or drug research institutions, and sell fake "special drugs" for epidemic prevention. Some even put on foreign language labels to pretend to be "foreign drugs" and cheat money. Attention, students, novel coronavirus has not yet been developed for specific drugs. Therefore, don't believe in the so-called "special drugs" of strangers.
05
Train / plane / hotel / hotel / express return and change
During the epidemic period, illegal elements used the opportunity of stopping some international and domestic transportation vehicles, handling ticket refund procedures, sending fraudulent SMS, inducing victims to call or log in to phishing websites, obtaining personal information such as the victim's bank card number, password, SMS verification code, etc., to defraud the funds in the card. With the epidemic gradually under control, students may not be far away from returning to school. If they receive information about changes in trains, flights, etc., they must verify the situation through official channels.
Real fraud cases
Don't think these are far away from you. Here are the real cases that happened around us.
Case 1: on January 26, Cui Mou, a resident of Yantai City, released the information about buying masks in Baidu Post Bar. Immediately, the suspect Han Mou claimed to have masks for sale in stock and replied in the post bar. After the two were added as wechat friends, and agreed on the model, quantity and price of masks through wechat chat, Cui transferred 1956 yuan in five times through wechat transfer. After the transfer, Cui Mou immediately Pulled black.
Case 2: on February 13, the criminal suspect Li Mou sneaked into a school English learning QQ group in Nanjing, imitated the teacher's nickname and head portrait, and issued false information in the group, asking each student to pay "Tuition" 1300 yuan, and two were cheated. During the investigation by the public security organ, it was found that the funds in the suspect's account were related to more than 30 killed parents, totaling more than 15000 yuan.
Case 3: fraudsters use campus loans to defraud.
Keep precautions in mind
During the epidemic, students should enhance their awareness of prevention. Any information involving money may be fraud. Xiaobian has sorted out three preventive measures for you. Let's have a look.
01
Don't believe it
Do not trust the phone, wechat and SMS of unknown origin. No matter what rhetoric the criminals use, they will not listen to them. Hang up the phone in time, do not reply to the SMS, and do not give the criminals the opportunity to further set up a trap.
02
No disclosure
In any case, it is not easy to disclose personal and family information, especially important information such as ID card number, bank card number, password, SMS verification code, etc.
03
No transfer
Learn to understand the common sense of using the bank card, and never provide or transfer the verification code or scan the QR code required by strangers, so as to ensure the safety of the funds in the card.
During the anti epidemic period, epidemic prevention and fraud prevention are equally important.
The epidemic prevention should not be relaxed, and the fraud prevention should be vigilant.
Know the means of fraud, beware of being cheated!
