How to prevent street fraud

1. Liars often use several tricks: 1. It's fair to find money, and it's equally divided. Generally speaking, three or more fraudsters form a fraud gang. After careful planning in advance, they choose to look for targets in places such as banks, post offices or hospitals where people are easy to carry a lot of cash. Liars generally choose middle-aged and elderly people, and most of them are women. First, they monitor people who deposit and withdraw a lot of cash in the bank, and then follow them to the roadside or near the bus station or set a trap on a quiet road. Generally speaking, the whole fraud process is divided into six steps: namely, "drop, pick up, divide, entangle, adjust and slip". Specific description: Suspect A "drops money" before finding the crime target in advance, and suspect B "picks up money". Suspect b showed the victim a thick stack of banknotes, most of which were neatly cut paper, counterfeit money or bank money except for two real money on the front and back. Liars will say that they just found it, and use "half meeting" as bait to trick the victim into going to a remote place to "share money" with him. When dividing the money, the suspect A came to ask who found the money, and then insisted that the victim found the money and made an "unreasonable entanglement". The theory that victims are forced to withdraw their deposits or are found is difficult to explain at present. At this point, when the criminal suspect C appeared as a "middleman or witness" and mediated from it, C took advantage of the chaos to switch the victim's money and then fled with his accomplices. In the course of the dispute, once the deception was discovered by the victim, the victim was not fooled, so the gang simply rummaged through the bag, thus taking the opportunity to grab money, and even more directly grabbed the bag. Some criminals also wrapped several hundred-dollar bills in white paper, tied them into a bundle, deliberately put them in a conspicuous place for you to find, and then offered to divide the money on the grounds that "everyone has a share". The "paper money" you found belongs to you, while your cash and jewelry belong to criminals. In addition to dividing the money, criminals will also defraud the parties by mortgage, winning prizes and promising high interest returns. Police tip: strangers are really insatiable when they find money, and the governor has no money for nothing. A liar pretends to be a person who helps people process gold and silver jewelry. When he helped people process gold and silver jewelry, he made a chemical reaction with liquid medicine and took the opportunity to melt some gold and silver into the liquid medicine. When the victim saw that the size of gold and silver jewelry had not changed, he didn't pay attention. When other processing shops weigh, they are not so visible. At this time, the liar has disappeared. Most of these cases occur in rural areas, and the victims are generally middle-aged and elderly people, especially middle-aged and elderly women. Police tip: outsiders must be careful when processing jewelry, and they must be weighed after processing. The best way is to process jewelry in Zhenggui Gold Store. 3. Set up gambling scams in cars, streets, hotels or other public places, using poker, chess, iron melon seeds, red and green pencils, cups, etc. Use people's gambling psychology to cheat. This kind of deception is often cheated by five or six people together, commonly known as file mode. When cheating, one person sets up a gambling game, and several "trusts" next to him participate in gambling. Using herd mentality, when the victim saw that others were eager to participate in winning money, he began to let the victim win a little first, and then cheated the money out of his pocket. Police tip: this trick is mixed with magic skills, and outsiders can never win. The best way is to stay away from gambling. 4. Bank teller machine fraud is a new type of fraud recently. By cheating on the bank teller machine, the cardholder's card number and password are obtained. The criminal's modus operandi mainly includes the following: First, posting a false notice on the bank teller machine to mislead the cardholder to transfer the deposit to the criminal's preset account according to the instructions in the notice; Second, criminals posted ATM machine failure notices in inconspicuous places, requiring users who had been swallowed to dial the designated telephone number, and at the same time placed a simple card release device at the outlet of the ATM machine. Once the cardholder inserts the card into the ATM, it will be stuck by the small clip inserted into the slot and cannot exit, causing the ATM to display "service suspended". When the cardholder dials the relevant telephone number according to the false notification prompt, the criminals try to trick the cardholder into revealing the password. After the cardholder leaves, he takes out the card and steals funds. Third, criminal gangs commit crimes, targeting people with poor self-prevention awareness and unfamiliar ATM operation. Many people conspire to peek at the password when the cardholder withdraws money. In the process of ATM connection, they created the illusion of "swallowing cards" in the name of helping the operation, and then told cardholders to take out their bank cards and withdraw money from different places when they contacted the bank to collect cards. Police tips: First, banks will announce computer system upgrades and service changes in their business premises. If in doubt, you can inquire through the bank's fixed telephone number. Don't trust the "notice" posted on the ATM. If you find false news, call 1 10 in time. Second, cardholders should be vigilant when withdrawing money, and don't casually disclose the password of the bank card. Once the card is "swallowed", please report the loss directly to the bank or call the bank's special service number. Don't trust and call the number posted on the ATM. Third, when you use a bank card to withdraw money, you should pay attention to the people standing next to you, especially those who are eager to help you withdraw money. 6, mobile phone SMS fraud scammers send fake text messages to your mobile phone or directly call your landline or PHS to tell you the news of winning the prize, defrauding your remittance. One is to lie that your mobile phone number is the winning number of the lottery, and there are considerable prizes waiting for you, and tell you that you need to pay the mailing fee for the prizes. When you transfer the first money to the bank account left by him, you are told that you need to pay other fees, and then send the money there, waiting left and right, but you still can't get the prize. The second is to lure mobile phone users to reply to text messages under the banner of "SMS speed dating" and "online dating". If you reply, your mobile phone number may be locked by some illegal SMS websites, and you will have to pay a high phone bill unconsciously. Police tip: The winning mobile phone numbers are all deceptive. There are more and more tricks used by swindlers.
