01, dangerous "twilight love"!
"The best thing to make is women's money, the best is to cheat the elderly money", just when young people use their leisure time dating App to play happily, a large number of middle-aged and elderly people are getting lost in the scam of "marriage and dating".
How many middle-aged and elderly dating apps
According to the "Report on China's Mobile Phone Security in the First Half of 2021", from the age group of deceived netizens, the proportion of post-70s reached 5.4%, although the absolute value is not high, but the per capita loss is the highest.
"What can't be obtained is always in turmoil", the emotional needs of middle-aged and elderly people, at present, has always been a sensitive area for social discussion, and for this reason, these middle-aged and elderly people are in a long-term lonely and lonely state, depressed for too long, and need to have an emotional outlet, and at this time, since the encounter APP, fun island APP, heart encounter APP and other kinds of dazzling names as the representative of the middle-aged and elderly dating platform turned out, soon became the spiritual home of these middle-aged and elderly people.
Come meet the APP interface
Empty nesters, lonely elderly people also have the emotional needs of "twilight love", they have time, but also spare money, which also gives some mixed marriage dating Apps an opportunity to take advantage of, and repeatedly succeeded:
At the end of March 2021, Xinhui public security exposed a fraud incident under the guise of "twilight love", 54-year-old Lao Chen met 46-year-old Ah Hong through the middle-aged and elderly blind date App, the two sides added WeChat, chatted hotly, although they never met each other, but the "feelings" quickly warmed up to directly match their wives, Ah Hong saw that the time was ripe, and began to let Lao Chen help her invest in the "XX Finance" sent by himself, seeing that Ah Hong's account income was quite high, Lao Chen also registered an account, and he invested more than 60,000 before and after. Until one day he found that he could not withdraw cash, and at the same time, Ah Hong also blacked himself, and Lao Chen found that he had been deceived and regretted it too late.
At the end of 2020, the Yinzhou court concluded a network APP fraud case, the company involved in the case through the social App screening, specifically to the 50-year-old middle-aged and elderly single men as the target, and then arrange the salesman to package themselves as middle-aged widowed women, one by one plus them as friends, and then on the grounds that their "daughters" do live broadcast to complete the assessment task, induce these single men to go to the live broadcast room to recharge and tip, it is reported that some business skilled salesmen can even be divided into mother and daughter two corners, only half a year successfully defrauded more than 400,000 yuan.
Although these apps are mainly cut by middle-aged and elderly men, it does not mean that no middle-aged and elderly women are victimized
In the middle of 2020, Ping An Luoyang announced a marriage and dating scam, an 18-year-old guy, actually threatened a 60-year-old woman with a private photo, a total of more than 400,000 deceived, it turned out that in Luoyang, there was an old lady in her 60s who met an 18-year-old boy through the dating App, the strange thing is that they quickly became an "online couple", the old lady with spare money in her hand trusted this young man very much, even the Alipay account password was given to him, as a result, the guy in just half a year, Through various reasons, he squandered more than 400,000 yuan from the old woman, and what was worse was that he also used the old woman's private photos to threaten and extort, and the old man finally had no choice but to call the police for help, and the warning also brought the young man to justice.
At the end of 2019, Yiyang County Bureau Zhao Bao police station received a police report, the jurisdiction of a middle-aged male mass Lao Zhang said that he used a mobile phone dating APP to chat with a woman, the APP popped up a window, prompting to pay the registration as a member to continue to chat with the woman, at that time to see the other party's head portrait is beautiful, itchy old Zhang impulsively paid the fee, did not expect to just pay the money, the other party disappeared in a blink of an eye, Lao Zhang was angry and hateful, which fell to the police.
To what extent are these scammers rampant? In addition to the "middle-aged single women" and "young college students" to catch, they even dare to pretend to be "Internet police"
In the summer of 2018, the Luyi County Public Security Bureau Network Police Brigade disclosed a case of the elderly dating was deceived, the citizen Zhang Laotai was defrauded of 8,000 yuan for making friends on the marriage and love website, but although Mrs. Zhang went to the police station for the first time, she was still uneasy, so she searched for "what to do if she was cheated of money" on her mobile phone, and clicked into a link to an "online reporting platform", the website looks very formal, there is contact information behind the "110 alarm desk", so Mrs. Zhang added "police officer 1", and it was expected to be set again.
After chatting with Mrs. Zhang, the "police officer 1" who called herself "Officer Lu" said that she could help her recover the money, but she had to pay a deposit of 15,000 yuan first, and when it was verified clearly, it would be refunded within 2 hours, and the 8,000 yuan that was defrauded would be returned to Mrs. Zhang, but after Mrs. Zhang transferred 18,000 yuan, "Officer Lu" said that it was not enough, and she needed to remit 5,000, so Mrs. Zhang borrowed 4,000 yuan to remit it, after which, "Officer Lu" evaporated in the world
……
I can't help but ask, this kind of scam, in fact, there is no technical gold content, and even many of them can be debunked at a glance in the eyes of our young people, how come their heads are like being infused with ecstasy soup?
What is the reason why they will believe in strangers on the other side of the network cable? Or would you rather believe in true love than believe it's a trap?
02, day defense night defense, routine is difficult to prevent!
To some extent, these middle-aged and elderly people are deceived, which is the embodiment of the sequelae of the "mid-life crisis", and it is also a manifestation of lack of care and love, and the fraud phenomenon filled with these dating APPS is nothing more than tailor-made for the middle-aged and elderly through the "weakness of human nature".
High return on investment
China's elderly group is not easy, they have to eat a lifetime of bitter New Year,But also to bring children with a baby, and even have to save money to use pensions to subsidize their children's mortgages, the middle-aged group is the pillar of the family, they continue to bear pressure, there are also vulnerable times, when they open their eyes every day for money and trouble, their hearts still have the dream of "quick get rich".
At this time, some dating APPS use heterosexual dating as the entry point, and then win the trust of these middle-aged and elderly people, throwing the bait of high financial returns to them, then, the middle-aged and elderly groups who are eager to seize the last opportunity to earn money actually want to "try again", in case they really make money?
On November 10, 2021, a 45-year-old Ms. Huang in Hangzhou met a netizen on the dating APP, after chatting, the other side recommended a platform for her to invest in virtual currency, Ms. Huang was convinced, the result was tragically defrauded of 130,000, in the browser casual search, you can see a lot of cases of the elderly being deceived.
In addition, at the bottom of an article entitled "My Experience of Encountering APP Fraud", there are also many messages from tens of thousands of victims who have been deceived.
People, it is difficult to learn to face reality, but people always have to face reality, middle-aged and elderly people need to re-examine their own material desires.
Seven emotions and six desires
Even if there are middle-aged and elderly groups who are not interested in making money, they are also unable to escape the constraints of spiritual needs, many middle-aged and elderly children are not around, and even many middle-aged and elderly people themselves are single or divorced and widowed, at this time, their sense of loneliness and not being needed, where can the office workers of 996 experience? Young people have normal physiological and emotional needs, but middle-aged and elderly people are not worthy?
So when the background "beauties" of these dating APP are dedicated to the newly registered middle-aged and elderly male user groups, and even issue naked teasing, these middle-aged and elderly men, it is difficult to think of winning ah, or we reverse thinking analysis, the original intention to download and register the middle-aged and elderly people who register this type of dating APP, itself, the ability to resist temptation is weak, so it will be accurately hunted by fraudsters - you think that the twilight love, just want to get your money!
It is reported that many married women have become the chatters of these dating APP part-time, and those with strong business ability can earn more than 1,000 yuan a day, and under the careful seduction of these chatmen, some single middle-aged and elderly men do not hesitate to spend thousands of dollars.
Do you want to talk to them?
Want to go further? Charge money to become stronger!
Well, even if you are an old man who does not lack love and does not want to make a windfall, you always have to be a little interested in loving well, with the popularity of 5G and the Internet, now shooting short videos and brushing short videos has become the first major hobby of the middle-aged and elderly people in the mainland, and these dating apps have long targeted this business opportunity, "invest in their favor", such as lai meet and leisure island and other fancy advertising in various popular video APP, fishing in the sea, there is always internet access.
Dating APP ads that appear on short video platforms
These chaotic dating APP platforms should indeed be focused on rectification, but if you want to cure the root causes, you must start from the middle-aged and elderly people themselves, and always remember a "online love is risky, investment needs to be cautious"!
Perhaps some netizens will say, why can't we restrict the live broadcast tip or online purchase of membership and consumption for middle-aged and elderly people like restricting minors?
The idea is very beautiful, the reality is very ridiculous, the middle-aged and elderly are people with full capacity for civil conduct, their own money, as long as it is not illegal, love how to spend how to spend, others have no right to interfere. In addition, even if some elderly people find that they have been cheated of money and hinder their face, they will eventually become smaller.
