"He said he was waiting for me at the gate of the Public Security Bureau
I was scared
Just tell the Public Security Bureau that there was a misunderstanding."
Under temptation
February 14, 2021, Quanzhou, Fujian Province. Unable to return to his hometown in Sichuan for the Chinese New Year, Xiao Yang (pseudonym), a 29-year-old single young man, drank a lot of wine at the noon dinner. When I got home in the afternoon, I slept until 9 p.m. At this time, the netizen "Meng Meng" suddenly sent him a message, saying that he was bored to celebrate the holiday alone. Xiao Yang and "Meng Meng" met on WeChat "people nearby", on this Valentine's Day night, the two talked very happily, and even the "woman" offered to go on a date to watch a movie.
During the time when Xiao Yang was waiting to meet, "Meng Meng" suddenly said that he could not watch the movie and went directly to the hotel to meet. Xiao Yang went downstairs to find the nearest hotel and book a room. After a while, "Meng Meng" asked Xiao Yang to transfer money to him for various reasons such as car fares, drinks and beverage fees, and security funds. Coinciding with the festival, in order to show his strength, Xiao Yang happily transferred 6,000 yuan to the other party.
Finally, "Meng Meng" sent a location, saying that she had arrived downstairs in the hotel. Xiao Yang hurried out to look for it, but "Meng Meng" did not go to the appointment. As the liquor faded, Xiao Yang gradually realized that he had been cheated of money, and repeatedly asked "Meng Meng" to return the money without results. The next day, the other party's identity changed, became a man to chat with him, and proposed to refund through the way of "funds to drive back", that is, Xiao Yang paid another 6,000 yuan, and then the other party returned 12,000 yuan. Xiao Yang was not deceived this time, and after some thought, he chose to go to the police station to call the police.
Serial set of conspiracies
The police were received by the Jiangnan Police Station of the Licheng Branch of the Public Security Bureau of Quanzhou City, Fujian Province, and at first the police analyzed that this was a typical dating "pig killing plate" scam. Scammers use voice changer software disguised as "beautiful women" to find "prey" on social software.
The police quickly found that the IP of "Meng Meng" was displayed in Myanmar, and the money that Xiao Yang was defrauded of was split by 67 sub-accounts after 10 seconds of each arrival. In just about 1 minute, the money has been distributed to more than 200 secondary accounts through online payment and red envelope transfer, and it has been withdrawn overseas in less than 1 hour.
At first, the other party sensed that Xiao Yang might have called the police and threatened That Yang would be retaliated against. Xiao Yang did not believe this statement, and under the guidance of the police, he continued to chat with the other party.
With the cooperation of Xiao Yang, the police clarified that the case was a serial set, and the fraudsters took advantage of the victim's "emotional vacancy" and eagerness to stop the loss to play the combination card of "pig killing plate" and "capital driven". Behind this serial set, another case is involved.
People who help with transfers
Through investigation, the police found that The money that Xiao Yang was defrauded was initially transferred to a bank account. The owner of the card is Ke Mou, 29 years old in Shangrao, Jiangxi. At 10:00 a.m. on April 25, 2021, Quanzhou police arrived at a home in Shangraoke, Jiangxi. In the face of the police, Ke Mou was particularly calm, as if he had long known that this day would eventually come.
Subsequently, Ke mou confessed to the police that all he did was to get back the money he had been defrauded of. It turned out that Ke was also a victim of a fraud crime, and his experience was the same as that of Xiao Yang. In the middle of November 2020, "Beautiful Yali" cheated Ke Mou of more than 2,000 yuan in the same way.
The difference is that when Ke was taken to the police station by the police after calling the police, he suddenly received a phone call, and the other party claimed to be the "sea" manager of "Yali" Company. He said he was waiting for him at the gate of the Public Security Bureau and asked Ke to tell the police that it was a misunderstanding. At the critical moment, Ke began to hesitate, he had leaked ID card information to "Yali", would this make him retaliate against the other party? After some hesitation, Ke actually took away the police according to the requirements of the other party.
From victim to accomplice
After the police left, the other party told Ke that he was a regular company and needed to borrow Ke's Alipay and bank cards to help with the accounting, fictitious turnover. As long as Ke's turnover reaches the first place, he can get back the money, which is the so-called "money-driven refund". Therefore, Ke mou told the other party his bank account and password, and joined a WeChat red envelope group to help the other party grab the red packet, and then transferred it to a netizen named "L".
From November 2020 to April 2021, Ke has been engaged in this "action". In half a year, he transferred 30,000 yuan to the other party himself, and the amount of money transferred to the other party was as high as 400,000 yuan, but he still did not get a refund. Because compared to the thousands of yuan that Ke was cheated of, the amount of each transfer was not large, so he not only did not call the police, but also did not take the money transferred to his account for himself.
As a result, he was taken down step by step, from a victim to an accomplice to fraud. After the police found out the facts, they told Xiao Yang and Ke that they were facing a hierarchical and hierarchical telecommunications fraud gang, and it was professional chatrs who chatted with them. The gangs do not know each other's real identities, and the top layer is hidden outside the country.
At present, the Quanzhou police have locked the identities of several members of criminal gangs abroad, and the case is just around the corner.
Popularization time
Q1: What kind of crime is Ke suspected of, and is there any possibility of mitigating or mitigating it?
A1: In this case, Ke later realized that this was a telecommunications fraud and that he had been used by someone. He helped criminals to recover losses, which in fact constituted a joint crime of fraud. In reality, there is generally no lenient punishment for the victim's conversion to the perpetrator. Whether angry or angry, judges will not be lenient. But if he has consistently performed well, there will be leniency in sentencing, but not particularly lenient, as appropriate.
Q2: What lessons should the general audience learn from this case?
A2: We often say, "Feelings belong to feelings, money goes to money." "In this case, when you give so much money, you can also reflect that the other party has some improper purposes, so it is easy to be caught by others." Situations like, for example, the "fairy jump" that happens in real life are similar. Scammers are taking advantage of your fear of calling the police to make you dumb. Therefore, as a citizen, of course, you must stay away from such dangerous situations.
