Epidemic-related scams
Scam one
Status: Personnel of epidemic prevention work institutions
Method: Mass message "Rapid Detection"
Purpose: Trick you into paying
In the chat group, there are messages such as "quick nucleic acid test results", "urgent fastest half an hour" and "nucleic acid testing can also be done at home", which are all means of scammers and cannot be trusted. Nucleic acid results must be issued by qualified hospitals, professional medical institutions or third-party testing agencies certified by the local health department! Don't be gullible to believe in false information on the Internet and so-called "private channels".
Remember: It's a lie to say that medical results can be obtained through methods such as extra fees or other private channels.
Scam two
Status: COVID-19 dispatcher
Method: Intimidation on the grounds of illness
Purpose: To trick you into buying medicine for consumption
Fraudsters will call themselves "a director of the prevention and control center" and inform you that there are abnormalities in the health code and test report, and you may be infected with new crown pneumonia. Subsequently, it will be revealed on the phone that there is now a special drug, which only needs three courses of treatment with a rated amount and insists on taking the drug every day to recover.
Remember: Whenever you hear someone say something similar, hang up the phone right away!
Scam three
Identity: Relevant authoritative departments, institutional personnel
Method: Text for various reasons
Purpose: Trick you into clicking on the virus link to obtain personally identifiable information
This is a scam that packages scam text messages as anti-epidemic tips. In the past, there was an appointment for vaccination, but now there are excuses such as 3 hours of nucleic acid and unexpected arrival. No matter how it is packaged, its fundamental purpose is to send a text message containing a "phishing website" link to induce people to click on the link. This kind of mass text message fraud, in addition to obtaining citizens' personal information, is also a "sea selection" of victims.
Remember: don't click on unfamiliar links, don't fill in personal information, see such information, please automatically ignore it, don't pay attention.
Scam four
Status: Vaccination Census Investigator
Method: Apply for WeChat friends and pull in various group chats
Purpose: Trick you into brushing orders
Vaccination has nothing to do with the task of brushing orders. This is just one way for scammers to get information about their victims.
Remember: As long as there is something unrelated or suspicious to the prevention and control of the epidemic, please go to the relevant department or the official website to carefully verify the identity information of the other party and make the next choice.
Scam five
Identity: The "mysterious person" who masters special channels
Method: Claim that investing in the production of a "COVID-19 vaccine" can make a lot of money
Objective: To induce victims to invest in stock speculation on fake platforms and apps
Many fraudsters claim to be the relevant responsible personnel of a health department to privately communicate with others, lurking in software or platforms such as social networking and online live broadcasting, saying that there are internal channels to purchase "new crown vaccines". Constantly brainwashing victims, instilling that investment in the production of "new crown vaccines" can make a lot of money, and inducing victims to make investment transfers on the platforms and apps they provide.
Remember: There is no such thing as a free lunch. Anyone who mentions money transactions on the Internet must think carefully and not trust others because of greed for money.
