One week of early warning of typical wire fraud cases
Swipe orders and brush reputation
Recently, when Mr. A went online, he saw an advertisement that he could get a 10 yuan red envelope when he signed in, and he could get an 18 yuan red envelope after clicking the link to download the APP. Mr. A signed in and downloaded the APP, and the other party transferred 10 yuan and 18 yuan to him through the collection code. Subsequently, the APP's customer service said that you can get a commission for completing the task of brushing orders. Mr. A swiped the order according to the operation steps sent by the other party. After completing 5 swiping tasks, the other party transferred 515 yuan commission to Mr. A. Subsequently, the other party asked him to transfer money and grab the task to repair the credit on the grounds of operation error. After Mr. A transferred money several times, the other party still claimed that his credit report needed to be repaired. Mr. A realised that he had been deceived and called the police.
Provincial Anti-Fraud Center Tips: Don't believe in false advertisements on the Internet similar to receiving red envelopes and prizes; There will be no pie in the sky, don't be fooled by small profits, and always remember that online swiping is a fraud. In case of fraud, please call the police on 96110.
Star-chasing scams
Recently, student B saw an advertisement on a short video platform that scanned the code to join the group and received a celebrity's autographed photo. After student B entered the group chat, the group owner said that the system for receiving celebrity signature photos was frozen because he scanned the code at will, and asked student B to cooperate with the operation, otherwise he would "call the police" to deal with it. Student B used the parent's mobile phone to scan the payment code sent by the other party as required, and after several operations, the other party said that it had been unfrozen and asked him to delete the chat history and friend information. The parents, who knew what had happened, realized that they had been deceived and called the police.
Provincial Anti-Fraud Center Tips: Fraudsters take advantage of students' star-chasing psychology and publish false advertisements on the Internet to receive free celebrity autographed photos or peripheral products. Minors have weak discernment skills, and are easily intimidated and deceived by the other party to transfer money to strangers. Parents should popularize the common sense of telecommunication network fraud for their children in their daily life, and try to avoid being deceived. In case of fraud, please call the police on 96110.
Pretending to be a shopping customer service
Recently, Ms. C received a call from a customer service person claiming to be a shopping platform, saying that the goods she purchased had serious quality problems and was now refunded for her. Since Ms. C had indeed purchased the product, she believed it to be true. Under the guidance of the other party, Ms. C clicked on the link and proceeded with the refund operation, only to find that it was a transfer to the other party. The customer service said that the operation was wrong, asked him to re-operate and promised a refund. Ms. C realised she had been deceived and called the police.
The Provincial Anti-Fraud Center reminds that when you receive a call claiming to be "customer service", you should go to the official platform to verify the situation; Do not click on unfamiliar links, and keep personal information such as bank accounts and verification codes carefully and never disclose them. In case of fraud, please call the police on 96110.
Impersonation of lawyer fraud

Student D used his family's mobile phone to make a video call according to the other party's request, and the other party asked him to transfer more than 20,000 yuan to the provided account on the grounds of paying a fine, and his family found that the account had changed.
