What are the tricks for the elderly to be easily deceived?

The elderly pay more and more attention to health care, and fraudsters take advantage of this to lure the elderly to buy useless health care products at high prices, explain health care knowledge under the guise of "free physical examination" and "free experts", or send eggs, fruits and small household appliances for free to defraud the elderly.

Anti-fraud tip: in the face of health care product fraud, we should believe in science, and don't believe that fraudsters say there is a "panacea" for all diseases. If you feel unwell, you should go to a regular hospital in time. Don't trust the efficacy of health care products too much, let alone use them as substitutes for drugs.

Second, the "pension payment" scam.

In the name of knowing the staff, fraudsters charge tens of thousands of yuan to uninsured people at one time, falsely claiming that they can help uninsured people provide agency services, so that uninsured people mistakenly think that they can enjoy pensions by paying social endowment insurance premiums at one time.

Anti-fraud tip: In many cases, fraudsters usually ask the elderly to hide information from their families, and advise the elderly to pay more attention to policies and social news closely related to their lives. Children should communicate more with the elderly at home and learn about their recent living conditions. If you find that the old man has been cheated, you should immediately persuade him patiently, stop the loss in time and call the police immediately.

Third, winning fraud.

Winning fraud is mainly implemented by calling or texting to say "winning is a lucky audience" or throwing paper winning lottery tickets to lure the elderly to win. Once someone contacts for redemption, fraudsters demand remittance in various names, such as "notarization fee", "transfer fees" and "late payment fee", and commit fraud.

Anti-fraud tip: there will be no pies in the sky, and there will be no free lunch. Old people should not believe this winning information. They should discuss with their children first, or call the police at 1 10.

Fourth, investment and financial fraud.

In recent years, many scams have lured the elderly to invest with high profit returns, including frequent illegal fund-raising cases in recent years. At first, some lawless elements often fabricated various investment projects in the name of investment, wealth management and pension services, and cheated with high interest, high return and low risk as bait.

Anti-fraud tip: the elderly should enhance their risk awareness when investing, and don't be confused by attractive projects and high returns. They should invest carefully.

Five, housing pension fraud

At present, many fraudsters aim at the old people's houses and launch the project of "providing for the elderly with houses". With the words of "it is useless to leave the real estate license at home and get high interest every month", they trick the old people into mortgaging their houses and buying "high-yield" "financial management projects" with borrowed money. Generally, fraudsters will return part of their income to the elderly in the early stage and then abscond with the money. In the end, the old man was penniless and even in debt.

Anti-fraud tip: the elderly should be alert to "high interest and zero risk" financial projects, especially important investment and financial matters such as mortgage trading, and communicate with their children and relatives or consult the public security department.

Sixth, the "warmth" scam

As the elderly enter their twilight years, they begin to fear loneliness and long for companionship. Fraud gangs seize the psychology of the elderly as a starting point to obtain illegal benefits. When people who sell fake and shoddy health care products come to the door every day to be caring and attentive, "more intimate than their children", some elderly people are willing to buy "three noes" products. At the same time, empty nesters are the key targets of fraud. Fraud gangs win trust through "companionship" and then commit crimes. What's more, they defrauded property in the name of "marriage".

Anti-fraud tip: the elderly should establish a sense of prevention and don't believe what others say. More importantly, children should care more about the elderly, give companionship, communicate more about their recent living conditions, and don't give scammers the opportunity to play the "family card".

Anti-fraud guide

First, keep a clear head, don't covet small profits, don't believe other people's lies, and remember that "there is no free lunch in the world" and "there is no pie in the sky".

Second, the elderly should pay more attention to all kinds of news media and community propaganda, learn more about official information and all kinds of fraud methods, and strengthen their ability to identify fraud methods.

Third, stay away from suspicious people, don't be too close to "strangers", always be vigilant, and don't answer strange phone calls and text messages casually to avoid being deceived.

Fourth, when you make up your mind, don't make a decision easily. Think more and consult more when you want to move money.

5. Go to the designated and formal departments of the government and the community, actively download the software of the National Anti-Fraud Center, and effectively identify and intercept fraudulent calls and text messages.

Sixth, elderly people who are not familiar with the operation of online payment platforms are advised not to bind bank cards on WeChat and Alipay, and only save a small amount of change. Try not to open online payment service for bank cards.

Seven, children should always pay attention to the physical and mental health of the elderly, more companionship, more care.

Everyone will be old, so that the elderly have a sense of security and peace of mind. This requires the joint efforts of the whole society. Let's all take action, actively respond to the national special action to crack down on pension fraud, weave a "protective net" for the elderly with law and technology, guide the elderly to strengthen their awareness of risk prevention, enhance their ability to identify and prevent fraud, and earnestly safeguard their legitimate rights and interests. At the same time, mobilize more social forces.
