I was cheated by WeChat. Why?

In order to gain profits, criminals cheat. If they are deceived carelessly, they will regret it very much. Therefore, it is very important to recognize the common means of WeChat fraud, be aware of it, and add vigilance to yourself. Naturally, I will figure out how to see through the tricks of fraud.

1. Number theft fraud

By stealing WeChat accounts, binding WeChat QQ numbers and mobile phone numbers, fraudsters pretend to be family members and even clone voices, and ask for money for various reasons.

2. Fraud of changing the number

Generally, fraudsters obtain the information of users' friends, and then use WeChat to change the number to defraud money on the grounds of borrowing money, tight business funds and surgery.

3. Identity fraud

Fraudsmen usually pretend to be Gao Fushuai or Bai Fumei, and talk to single men and women. After defrauding emotional trust, they then defraud money on the grounds of borrowing money, tight business funds and surgery.

4. Fraudulent use of purchasing

The fraudsters claim that they can "purchase overseas" at a very favorable price, and use this as bait to purchase at a discount. After the customers pay the purchasing money, the fraudsters will ask for additional "customs duties" on the grounds of "the goods are detained by the customs" and so on, and the goods will not be received after the customers pay the money.

5. Using QR code to cheat

The fraudsters use commodities as bait to give customers rebates or reduce prices, and then send the QR code of commodities, which is actually a Trojan virus. Once installed, Trojans will steal application accounts, passwords and other personal privacy information.

6. Like fraud

When some merchants post like information, they leave a "follow-up". Instead of revealing the specific location of the merchants, they write a telephone notice asking participants to send their phone numbers and names to WeChat platform. Once enough information is collected, this "purse" website will automatically disappear, in order to get more people's real personal information.

7. Recruitment fraud

Criminals use WeChat to post free recruitment, job hunting, carpooling, hitchhiking and other cases of fraud, robbery, rape, etc. occur from time to time. (This article is transferred from anti-fraud big data: FPData)

8. WeChat fake public account fraud

Fraudsters like to take a public account name similar to "traffic violation inquiry" on the WeChat platform, which makes you mistakenly think that this is the official WeChat publishing account, and then commit fraud. The police reminded that we should be vigilant about all kinds of public accounts, keep our eyes open, and verify the authenticity in many ways, especially not to conduct online transactions at will.

Police tip:

When using WeChat and other social software, we should enhance the awareness of personal information confidentiality, protect the safety of personal information, don't trust strangers easily, don't accept strangers' invitations at will, release personal information carefully, and it is recommended to turn off the location function of mobile phones in time when using WeChat.

don't scan the QR code on the street at will, especially the QR code in the name of adding friends to send gifts, which will lead to the disclosure of the personal information of the victim, being used to handle loans and committing fraud crimes. Don't trust the investment profit news on the phone, SMS and WeChat of unknown origin. The investment should be made in a formal and legal institution, and remember that there will be no pie in the sky.

In the process of WeChat chat, when money transactions are involved, such as borrowing money, shopping, transferring money, etc., you must communicate with the other party by phone, and remember not to contact according to the new number provided by the other party; For the bank account provided by the other party, you can check the attribution of the bank card through the network or the bank customer service phone. Once you find that it does not match the city where you or your relatives and friends are located, you should be vigilant.
