Recently I saw a very resonant statement that people nowadays rarely call. Ah Niu thought about it, as if it was true, he rarely took the initiative to call others, and he called himself probably only three kinds: takeaway brother, telemarketing and telecommunications fraud.

Speaking of telecommunications fraud, a friend of Ah Niu once told a very magical experience, first of all, a scam call came in, the scammer claimed to be from the Public Security Bureau, saying that your account was frozen because it was involved in money laundering, and Ah Niu's friend cleverly recognized the scam and hung up the phone. After a while, he found that more than a dozen missed calls on the mobile phone were real police uncles, reminding him that he was suspected of receiving fraud and should not transfer money to the other party.

Now please answer the bullet screen, have you ever received a call from a telecommunications scam? What kind of words did the other party use to deceive you? Each of us may know a little bit about telecom fraud, but not everyone really knows about telecom fraud and the story behind it.

So are we really helpless in the face of an evolved final version of telecom fraud?

Looking back at history, our country can spend three years to enter the tobacco soil that has harmed a hundred years, and can maintain a ten-year strike, so the life expectancy of the Chinese underworld does not exceed seven years. Today we are also able to combat and eventually eliminate telecommunications fraud, a new criminal offense that endangers the safety of people's property.

You may not know how hard the police uncle who is fighting on the front line is trying to fight fraud. In 2016, China's public security authorities launched a covert operation code-named "Great Wall" with the goal of cracking down on exposed public prosecutors' law fraud dens located in Siban Bluetooth. If this den is in the country, it may be broken in less than a week. However, anti-fraud elites from all over the country, coupled with the support of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Civil Aviation Administration and other departments, finally took three years to democratically return all criminal suspects back to China.

The 218 of the 225 suspects involved in the case from Taiwan brought great sensitivity and complexity to the Great Wall Operation. But what is more difficult is that the judicial process in European countries such as Spain is very different from that of China. Every step of the case handling and investigation must be approved by the local judge before the arrest operation can be carried out, and even the detention of personnel has great difficulties and challenges.

Then to extradite these suspects, especially Taiwanese suspects, to the country, the Spanish side insisted that each suspect must be heard, and the fraudsters who did not lose money hired the most professional lawyers to create various reasons to prevent extradition.

In this arduous and long process, the Chinese police have made great efforts to overcome difficulties in language, climate, law enforcement, and environment. Some police officers stayed in the local area for 11 months to handle the case, and when some people went home, the children did not know him. Finally, on June 7, 2019, as a Chinese civil aviation charter plane landed at Beijing Airport, all 225 suspects were escorted back from Spain in batches. This is the first time that the mainland has brought back telecommunications network fraud suspects from Europe on a large scale, and it has also fiercely deterred lawbreakers engaged in telecommunications fraud.

According to the police involved in the operation, after this operation, Spain has not yet had a fraud den against Chinese, and even the telecommunications fraud dens in the entire Western European region have basically disappeared.

Southeast Asia, where telecommunications fraudsters are piling up, is the focus of the Chinese police crackdown. If you've seen the movie, Operation Mekong will be infected by the heroism of China's anti-drug police going deep into the Golden Triangle to arrest drug lords, and the real arrest process is even more difficult. After all, the arrest of foreign suspects who commit crimes against their own citizens abroad has only been done by Americans in the world before, and one significant change in the southeast region over the years is China's increasingly difficult to ignore local influence.

In January 2019, Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen visited China, and the two sides decided to designate 2019 as the year of China-Cambodia law enforcement cooperation. Under this framework, china's Ministry of Public Security and the Cambodian side reached a series of agreements, including the Chinese side sending police experts and technicians to Cambodia, working jointly with the Cambodian police, and jointly arresting. In a very short period of time, nearly a thousand Chinese suspects were arrested in Cambodia.

On August 18, 2019, Cambodian Prime Minister Hun Sen ordered the suspension of the issuance of online gambling licenses and the prohibition of online gambling activities in Cambodia. The ban is also a fatal blow to lawbreakers engaged in telecommunications fraud in Cambodia. The video begins with a mention of people in Sihanoukville who are engaged in money laundering, gambling and telecommunications fraud. According to local media reports, as many as 90,000 people fled within seven days of the ban, and many of the incidents were clearly caused on the streets, which were called "Westport 818 Escape" by people in the know.

For those diehards who refuse to return to China, the Chinese police still have a way, such as public shouting, and refusing to return to China within the specified time will directly cancel the household registration. If some localities refuse to return to China, the relatives of fraudsters will also be affected; all children will return to their places of origin to enroll in the nearest school, and their immediate family members will strictly control their entry into the regiment, joining the party, joining the army, and taking the civil service examination. Of course, for returnees who voluntarily surrender, the punishment may be mitigated or waived in accordance with law.

Xiaobian wants to say that telecommunications fraud, as a crime that requires the cooperation of victims to complete, is actually not outside the country, but in China. "The troubles of daqing's heart are not outside." Today, many of us may have an APP called the National Anti-Fraud Center installed on our mobile phones. The National Anti-Fraud Center is one of the few institutions named by the Ministry of Public Security and is unique in the world. A national centre established to deal with telecommunications fraud.
