Why did the National Day tour planned by female college students fall through after scanning a QR code?

Tang Xiao, a female college student in Nanjing, was very depressed during the National Day. Because she was going to travel to Chengdu with her classmates, she scanned a "QR code" and ruined the trip. What the hell is going on here?

It turns out that Tang Xiao was cheated on the eve of National Day. 20 17 At 4: 30 pm on September 22nd, Tang Xiao came to Nanjing Xinjiekou police station with a depressed face to report the case.

Tang Xiao, a native of Nanjing, is currently studying in a university in Nanjing and has just entered the senior year. She and her classmates plan to use this golden week to travel to Chengdu, which they have been longing for for for a long time. Tang Xiao booked a plane ticket early and worked out a detailed strategy excitedly, but on September 22nd, a scam message broke all these beautiful visions.

On September 22nd 12: 50, Tang Xiao received a short message on his mobile phone, saying that the flight purchased by Tang Xiao had been cancelled for some reason, with a customer service phone number attached, asking Tang Xiao to contact customer service to discuss the refund or change. Tang Xiao called the customer service, and the customer service told her that there was no way to change the ticket for the Golden Week, so she had to refund it. If she agrees to refund the ticket, the airline will compensate the customer for the "lost time" of each ticket to 450 yuan. Tang Xiao bought two, so she has to compensate 900 yuan.

Subsequently, the customer service asked Tang Xiao to open WeChat to pay attention to an official WeChat account named "Shenzhen Airlines 1 123" and refund the ticket through the operation steps introduced in the official WeChat account. After doing so, Tang Xiao found that his plane ticket money had not been returned to his account, and he had not been compensated. Tang Xiao then contacted the customer service again. This time, the customer service told her that because her account quota was not enough, she needed to change a micro signal operation. So, Tang Xiao took the classmate's WeChat and operated it again.

Just then, Tang Xiao's roommate came to see what Tang Xiao was up to. After understanding the ins and outs of the matter, the roommate told her that she was likely to meet a liar and asked her to quickly check her WeChat wallet and bind the bank card. There is no shortage of money. Tang Xiao was surprised and quickly inquired about the account, but it was too late. Tang Xiao's own account is 9997.98 yuan less, and her classmate's bank card is 4558.99 yuan less. How did you get nearly 15000 yuan in just a few minutes?

Tang Xiao didn't understand how his money was transferred by swindlers, so he went to Xinjiekou police station with his classmates. After listening to Tang Xiao's story completely, Wang Xi, a policeman, found that the problem was a QR code picture that Tang Xiao received and scanned after paying attention to the official account of WeChat.

It turns out that although the QR code is marked with the words "missed flight fee", it is actually a "toxic" QR code. The fraudster planted Trojan virus in the URL linked by QR code. As long as Tang Xiao scans the QR code and enters the website, Trojan virus is implanted in Tang Xiao's mobile phone, and then his private information such as mobile phone number, bank card number and password is stolen. Then the fraudster used this information to transfer money from Tang Xiao and his classmates.

This incident once again reminded friends that there will be no pie in the sky, and we must be cautious when it comes to money.
