Wuhan is now a courier scam! 28 yuan is just a few sheets of paper. What happened?

The payment scam is quite old-fashioned. General scammers get the address information of the cheated, and then these scammers put some garbage into a larger courier box, and then the scammers send the garbage to the cheated through the courier company. What needs to be said at this time is that many courier companies have this business in payment collection, not merchants, so the deceived person needs to pay more than ten or twenty dollars to get the courier.

First, there are two pieces of paper in the courier. The deceived people don't know if they have this courier, and they are not sure what is in it, but their packaging looks very formal, so they believe the courier company and pay the courier fee. Finally, the deceived people found out that these boxes were actually rubbish, and in this scam in Wuhan, the rubbish they loaded was just two pieces of advertising paper.

Second, there is actually a more advanced routine of deceiving people by express delivery. In this case, the deceived people receive dissatisfied goods, and they need to return them, but their information does not know how to leak. Liars will send text messages saying that the cheated person will give some compensation if there is a problem with the return. For example, liars will give some small red envelopes or something. Their purpose is to open the links in their short messages. The link here is usually a virus website.

Third, do a good job in safety precautions. In fact, all the scams mentioned above have a * * * similarity, that is, the scammers get the information of the deceived, and consumers can stay away from these scams by protecting their information from being leaked. When you receive some strange express delivery, don't worry about payment. Be sure to confirm who sent it. Finally, don't click on the SMS link sent by strangers. Merchants selling goods on the regular platform will not send links privately. Finally, don't trust strangers at will.
