Under the guise of "poverty alleviation"
Let you buy gold and send it to a designated location
This method of using the name of a state agency to commit fraud
Has quietly appeared
Attention, attention
If we don't take more precautions
Your gold may disappear
Real Case
recently
Mr. D from Zhaoyang District received a strange express
There is a file inside
The document header is
“Focus on developing a new socialist countryside”
Mr. D learned from the contents of the document
Anyone who receives this document
Just scan the code to join the group
After identity verification, you can get
A poverty alleviation fund of up to 3.43 million yuan
The thought of getting a high amount of poverty alleviation funds immediately
Through the link sent by the other party
After downloading the "Wind and Rain Together" APP
During operation
The other party needs to pay 1% operating fee (gold)
Poverty alleviation funds can only be distributed after being mailed to the designated location
Mr. D believed it
Follow the other party's instructions
Purchased 10.45 grams of gold
Worth more than 6,000 yuan
The other party claimed that Mr. D’s poverty alleviation fund account had been frozen.
You need to buy another 250 grams of gold and mail it
To unfreeze and release
Mr. D realized he was cheated
Then I went to the Anti-Fraud Center of Zhaoyang Branch to report the case
Some fraud gangs
Under the banner of state organs
Forgery of official documents, certificates, and seals
In the name of government poverty alleviation, charity activities, etc.
Using high rebates as bait
Lure a large number of people who are unaware of the truth
Join various so-called "foundations" and "projects"
Defrauding money by making up excuses
Routine analysis
This type of fraud often follows current affairs and key policies, taking advantage of the public's misunderstanding of the policies, and then forging seals of state agencies to create false documents to gain trust, and then carry out subsequent fraud.
Fraudsters use the names of state agencies to commit fraud in a variety of ways, which are somewhat confusing and concealed, but there are also some common features:
First, fraudsters often send fake official documents through SMS, express delivery and other channels, and often contact victims online afterwards, rather than offline to handle so-called related business.
Second, trick victims into downloading unknown apps or clicking on unknown links to steal account information;
Third, they often use excuses such as "repaying personal income tax", "repairing credit", and "verifying identity" to ask victims to transfer money to designated accounts and advance funds before they can carry out subsequent "subsidy distribution" and "refund" operations.
Police reminder
When receiving an unfamiliar express delivery, you should check with your relatives and friends first.
Don't sign blindly
Encountering unfamiliar QR codes and links
Don't scan or click easily.
Don’t download apps from unknown sources.
Avoid falling into the trap of scammers
When you encounter a situation that you cannot judge
Seek help from the public security organs promptly
Preventing Telecom Fraud
Don’t listen, don’t believe, and don’t transfer money!
