Top Ten Common Telecom Fraud

Deception 1: pretending to be an acquaintance to borrow money

After dialing the victim's phone number, the criminals tentatively asked "Guess who I am", then induced the victim to sit in the right position, and then borrowed money from the victim on the grounds of "something". There are also scammers who steal QQ and micro-signals from acquaintances and ask victims to help recharge on the grounds that mobile phones are in arrears.

Deception 2: posing as a public security bureau, procuratorate or court officer.

Liars pretend to be "staff" such as public security bureaus, procuratorates and courts. And inform the victim of money laundering, drug trafficking, economic crimes, etc. And use the victim's eagerness to "clear the relationship and reduce losses" to induce the victim to transfer money to the so-called safe account provided by the liar, so as to achieve the purpose of fraud.

Trick 3: Pretend to be the operator's customer service phone with a pseudo base station.

Fraudsters send fraudulent short messages disguised as numbers such as 10086 through "pseudo base stations", and trick them into downloading and installing an App with Trojan virus by "exchanging points for cash" to steal accounts, passwords, verification codes, etc., thus stealing funds.

Deception 4: impersonating a bank employee

The swindler pretended to be a bank employee and lied that the customer's bank card was maliciously overdrawn. After the victim pleaded guilty, he also claimed that the identity of the victim was stolen. On the grounds of ensuring the safety of the victim's funds, he tricked the victim into providing information such as flat bank card number, password and dynamic transaction code, thus stealing the user's funds.

Deception 5: pretending to be a star to cheat money

In the past, there were scammers posing as Wallace Huo and Daniel Wu, claiming that they were filmed in the mountains, then posing as Jackson Yi fans to raise money, and even posing as bigbang to cheat money. This kind of deception doesn't look brilliant at all, but in reality, some fans have really lost their minds. For example, on Fan Bingbing's birthday last year, a swindler used the WeChat name of "Wu Meiniang" to cheat fans of their money in the name of Fan Bingbing. Justin also lay down and pretended to invite fans to meet on WeChat.
