What are the common methods of WeChat fraud?

Recently, a man in Wuhan, Hubei Province changed his WeChat avatar to pretend to be his girlfriend and defrauded the "sister-in-law" for 20,000 yuan, which triggered a heated discussion. What are the common methods of WeChat fraud?

First, purchasing fraud: empty gloves and white wolves

They usually claim that they are doing "overseas purchasing" and seduce consumers with low prices. After you pay the money, they will tell you the reasons such as "the goods are detained by the customs and need to pay customs duties", and then let you add "customs duties". After you pay, the liar disappears, and the money and goods are gone.

Reminder: It is recommended that you purchase goods through formal channels. Your father is not "Li Gang". Why should others sell it to you below the market price?

Second, the voting contest: hidden "poison links"

It must be very common to vote in various "Meng Wa Contest" in the circle of friends! But beware of the "poison link" hidden in this kind of voting. When Mr. Zhang from Chongqing voted for his friend's children, he clicked and downloaded some software. As a result, his bank card was stolen and swiped for more than 20,000 yuan.

Reminder: Similar to "Jizan", the authenticity of the organizer who provided false voting links in this contest is often a mystery, and its original intention is to obtain your personal information. The harassing phone calls and text messages you received were leaked from such a place!

Third, scan the QR code: Trojan virus implantation

Scan the QR code to send XX, scan the code to pay attention to winning the discount, scan the code to return the red envelope, scan the code to send the phone bill ... Do you often encounter such sales promotion in your life? Be careful that some QR codes contain Trojan virus. Once installed, Trojans will steal your application account, password and other private information.

Reminder: Never scan the code, and don't click on the unknown link to download it! If you sweep it away, it will be a Trojan horse.

Fourth, investment and financial management: in fact, liar, sales

Not long ago, a female college student in Nanjing lied that she was an "investment financial planner" and distributed so-called "wealth management products" in her circle of friends. The investment is between1000 and 5000 yuan, and the monthly rate of return can be as high as 80%. Such untrue propaganda, as a result, some people have been cheated!

Reminder: Remember, it is never a real financial planner, a liar or a salesman who sells products in a circle of friends! Don't believe in the so-called high rate of return.

Fifth, WeChat red envelopes: grabbing red envelopes also has "poison"

Wechat red envelopes have been very popular in the past two years. On holidays, everyone will send one or two red envelopes to the WeChat group for entertainment. But it happened that someone created another kind of "red envelope". When the user clicks, the personal information bound by the mobile phone, online banking and Alipay are stolen unconsciously.

Reminder: If someone sends you this "red envelope", don't open it. If you are not careful, you should shut down the mobile phone network at the first time, and then immediately modify your passwords such as online banking and Alipay, or reset the relevant systems by swiping your computer card to completely delete this Trojan virus.
