How to deal with suspected fraud, as follows:

1. Verify the identity of the other party, ignore it after confirming that it is a scam, and report the number to the operator and other channels to which the number belongs.

2. Set up interception through the security software that comes with or installed on the mobile phone, and report it to the operator of the phone number and other channels. At present, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology, under the guidance of the State Council’s Inter-Ministerial Joint Conference on Combating and Controlling New Illegal Crimes in Telecom Networks, has taken multiple measures to comprehensively combat telecom network fraud and achieved phased results.

Methods to prevent telecommunications fraud:

1. Don’t be gullible. Don’t trust phone calls and text messages from unknown sources. No matter what sweet talk or rhetoric the criminals use, don’t believe them easily. You must hang up the phone immediately and do not reply to the text messages, so as not to give the criminals an opportunity to lay further traps.

2. Not disclosed. Strengthen your psychological defense and do not be tempted by criminals or illegal text messages just for small profits. No matter what the situation, do not disclose your and your family’s identity information, deposits, bank cards, etc. to the other party.

3. No transfer. Learn the common sense about bank cards, ensure the safety of funds in your bank cards, and never send or transfer money to strangers.
