recently, the people's court of xixia county, henan province, tried a case in which a college student named liang went astray while looking for a job and became a member of an overseas fraud criminal group.

university graduate liang mou joined a multinational telecommunications network company through a job posting on a recruitment website, but soon after joining, he found that he was helping a telecommunications fraud group to commit online fraud. "if i quit, i won't get the high pay and i'll have to find a new job. i'll just work for a while." after a mental struggle, liang mou did not choose to quit for the sake of profit. instead, he was promoted from a customer service team member to a team leader within 10 months of work, earning more than 40,000 yuan. after the incident, he truthfully confessed his crime and returned all the illegal gains.

the xixia county court held that the defendant liang mou participated in an overseas fraud criminal group for the purpose of illegal profit, committed telecommunications network fraud crimes against domestic residents abroad, and spent more than 30 days in overseas fraud criminal dens within one year, and his behavior constituted the crime of fraud. based on the circumstances of liang mou's crime, the consequences, and his behavior after the incident, the court sentenced him to two years and six months in prison for the crime of fraud and fined him 30,000 yuan.

judge reminds:

fraud criminal organizations take advantage of the eagerness of college graduates to find jobs and are eager to work. under the banner of company recruitment, they notify interviews and onboarding with seemingly standardized processes. they lure and trick job-seeking college graduates into joining with favorable salaries and benefits and broad career prospects. college students should be vigilant when looking for jobs, especially for jobs that require little effort but offer high returns. they must choose with caution, such as some non-standard financial management companies, investment companies, collectibles companies, pension projects, etc. if they find any problems after joining the company, they can consult legal professionals or look up relevant knowledge on the internet. if they feel there is a problem, they should leave the job in a timely manner.
