The mobile phone received a text message from the landlord to pay the rent. How do scammers cheat?

A few days ago, my husband asked me to remit the rent to the landlord before going on a business trip, and then I suddenly received a short message from a strange number with a card number in it. When I filled out the form and prepared to remit money, I found that the text message was sent by a liar, which scared me into a cold sweat. On the morning of July 24th, Ms. Fan, who runs a shop front in Shanghai market, called our hotline (18837996211) to report.

According to Ms. Fan, she rents a house in the Shanghai market and runs a small facade, and remits rent to the landlord once every quarter. A few days ago, before her husband went on a business trip, she was told that it was time to remit the rent to the landlord. When he left, the husband left a note for Ms. Fan with the landlord's bank card number and contact number.

"I didn't care too much at the time, and I was going to remit it at the end of the month." Ms. Fan said, however, her husband had just been on a business trip for two days, and she suddenly received a short message from a strange number urging her to pay the rent, with the card number of the Agricultural Bank attached.

"I have the impression that the card number left by my husband is also from the Agricultural Bank of China, so I have no doubt. I also specifically sent a text message saying' OK, I will call you these two days'. " Ms. Fan said that at noon on the 24th, she stayed in the store after lunch and went to the nearby Agricultural Bank to prepare to remit the rent of 30,000 yuan to the landlord.

After filling out the money order, Ms. Fan called the landlord and told him that the money would be remitted immediately. No, this phone call scared Ms. Fan into a cold sweat. The landlord told her that he was in no hurry to pay the rent. Then, she contacted her husband to check and found that the bank card number was wrong. At this point, Ms. Fan reacted, and the previous reminder was a scam.

"30 thousand yuan is my hard-earned money for a month. If I am cheated by a liar like this, I will be angry. " Ms. Fan still has a lingering fear.

In response to this matter, police officer Li Kaqin of the Criminal Investigation Detachment of Luoyang Public Security Bureau reminded the public that SMS fraud is a new type of fraud in recent years, with various forms. And all scam messages will have one thing in common: strange phone numbers and strange bank card numbers. "The transfer is risky and the public needs to be cautious. Don't trust phone calls and text messages from unknown sources. Once you receive a text message from a strange number, you must verify the identity and account number of the other party before remittance. " Police officer Li said.

The clue provides Ms. Fan's remuneration to 50 yuan.
