What are the new fraud methods in the past two years?

In recent two years, there have been many new fraud methods, which are hidden and have many victims, so we should pay great attention to them.

1. Fraud by impersonating a public security organ:

For example, a new type of fraud routine that appears by impersonating a "police officer":

(1) The fraudster contacted the victim by telephone, claiming that his personal information had been fraudulently used, and asked to add a "police officer" WeChat, keeping it confidential and reporting the trend every day.

(2) After adding WeChat, fraudsters gain the trust of the swindlers by showing police officers' cards and wanted orders.

(3) Then ask the defrauded person to open a new account, transfer the money to a new card, and take the account password and verification code.

(4) Then ask to talk in airplane mode, and use this time to transfer the money.

For such fraudulent means, it is necessary to pay attention to:

(1) Under any circumstances, don't tell others the verification code at will;

(2) The police will not handle cases by telephone, nor will they ask the parties to transfer money to a fixed account.

2. National assets unfreezing fraud:

By forging the seals, certificates and official documents of national ministries and commissions, pretending to be the central leaders, fabricating false project developers, claiming that they can make profits by paying membership fees, registration fees and other fees, and even falsely claiming that they can join the "Chinese People's Liberation Army Reserve Force", thus committing fraud. Reminder:

There are no national assets unfreezing projects and organizations in China.

3. Phone bill recharge fraud:

Fraudsmen use pseudo base stations and number-changing software to send short messages of recharge special activities to fraudsters, thus committing fraud.

Reminder:

(1) All those who need to fill in the bank password and bank SMS verification code are frauds.

(2) For promotional information, please do not click on the recharge link provided by the information.

(3) recharge through official channels of operators such as online business hall, mobile phone business hall and entity business hall.

4. Online part-time fraud:

Promote fraud by joining Wechat business, and spread it by adopting a development model similar to pyramid selling. In view of this kind of fraud, please don't trust the following types of part-time jobs:

(1) Part-time jobs that need to pay agency fees, membership fees, deposits and other expenses first.

(2) Part-time job with easy access to high commission.

(3) Part-time jobs that earn income by developing offline.

5. Pseudo-base station+network sniffing fraud:

Fraudsters use SMS sniffing technology to obtain SMS verification code and steal bank cards. In this case, the swindler's mobile phone and card are not lost, and the money may be stolen without scanning the QR code and clicking on various links. The fraud routine is as follows:

(1) By setting up pseudo base stations, the short messages of mobile phone users within the signal coverage range are stolen, and the short messages related to email links are screened out to obtain the mobile phone number;

(2) Log in to Alipay, bank and other APP payment platforms by using the mobile phone number, and obtain the verification code by using the sniffing device;

(3) Obtain the user's name, ID number and bank card number information, and complete the theft of account funds.

In view of such fraudulent means, suggestions are as follows:

(1) When binding bank cards on third-party platforms, only one bank card should be bound as far as possible, and the payment limit and times should be set.

(2) If conditions permit, turn off your cell phone or set it to flight mode at night.

(3) If you receive an unknown SMS verification code and find that your money has been stolen, you should immediately freeze your bank card, keep the SMS content and call the police immediately.

6. Fraudulent fraud by fabricating false stories:

By fabricating false stories such as poor life experiences, we gain the sympathy of the defrauded person and commit fraud for various reasons. Source: People's Daily, People's Daily, etc.
