What are the most common fraud methods?

In the past two years, many new fraud methods have emerged, which are concealed and have many victims, and need to be highly valued.

1, impersonating public security fraud:

For example, impersonating a "policeman" is a new type of fraud:

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

(2) After adding WeChat, fraudsters gain the trust of the deceived by presenting police officer's ID and wanted order.

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

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

In view of 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 the case by telephone, nor will they ask the parties to transfer the money to a fixed account.

2. National assets unfreezing fraud:

By forging the seals, certificates and official documents of state ministries and commissions, pretending to be 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:

Fraudsters use pseudo base stations and rebranding software to send short messages of recharge special activities to scammers, thus implementing fraud.

Reminder:

(1) All those who want 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:

By joining the WeChat business to promote fraud, it adopts a development model similar to pyramid schemes to spread it. For this kind of fraud, please don't believe the following types of part-time jobs:

(1) Part-time job with agency fee, membership fee, deposit, etc.

(2) Part-time jobs that are easy to get high commissions.

(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 liar'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 a pseudo base station, steal the short messages of mobile phone users within the signal coverage, filter out the short messages related to email links, and obtain the mobile phone number;

(2) Log in to Alipay, bank and other APP payment platforms with the mobile phone number, and use sniffing equipment to obtain the verification code;

(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, it is suggested that:

(1) When binding bank cards on third-party platforms, try to bind only one card and set the payment limit and times.

(2) If possible, try to 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 the money has been stolen, you should immediately freeze the bank card, keep the SMS content and call the police immediately.
