The college entrance examination is coming
Some scammers are also ready to move
The police reminded again
These college entrance examination scams
Parents and classmates must be vigilant
Beware of being deceived!
Trick 1: Revise grades
Scam Methods:
After the college entrance examination, scammers took advantage of the parents' unstoppable anxiety to commit crimes, claiming that there were channels to modify scores, sell them at low prices, pay confidentiality money, or send Trojan horse links via SMS, fill in candidates' identity information, bank card numbers, SMS verification codes, etc. to commit fraud.
Police Reminder:
1. When checking scores by candidates and their families, they should look for the inquiry method and score checking website specified by the education department, and do not easily click on the links from unknown sources in mobile phone text messages, let alone enter information.
2. Once the results are announced, the dust will settle, and candidates who have objections to their results can review the test paper through official channels, but it is definitely a fantasy to modify the results directly. Criminals seize the psychological deception of candidates eager to study, do not be deceived.
Scam 2: "Early Admission"
Scam Methods:
The scammer pretended to be a university admissions office, called the victim, saying that because of the early enrollment of the institution, the victim's admission status is "free to vote", if you want to be admitted to the school, you need to pay tuition in advance, otherwise there is a risk of being unable to admit, and the victim is bluffed, thus being deceived.
Police Reminder:
The early batch admission is mainly for candidates of military, national defense, and art colleges, and the admission work is all implemented in remote online admission, and the special computer system submits files according to the rules of volunteering and filing, without being affected by any human factors. Any phone messages received on the grounds of admissions cannot be trusted. Candidates can check the admission information through the official website of the Education Examination Institute, and must not "rush to the doctor" to avoid being deceived.
Scam Three: "Internal Indicators"
Scam Methods:
The scammer pretended to be the director of a military school admissions office to call, saying that the school has "internal enrollment indicators", if the victim's child wants to go to a military school, you have to pay a deposit first, in order to dispel the victim's concerns, the scammer also showed the victim a fake school admissions document through QQ or WeChat, the victim was convinced and immediately paid the deposit, thus being deceived.
Police Reminder:
Military school admissions, like those in other local colleges and universities, have strict procedures and regulations. There is no "internal enrollment quota" for military school admissions, and payment is for fraudulent purposes, candidates and parents should not be deceived.
Scam 4: "Help out" art admissions
Scam Methods:
There are many types of art enrollment, the filing sorting rules and operating procedures are complicated, and the art enrollment plan outside the province should be adjusted nationwide according to the source of students, so that the admission lasts for a long time. Fraudsters seize the eagerness of candidates and parents, take advantage of the long duration of admission, and claim that as long as they pay money, they can operate from it to "help get it", or threaten candidates and parents with "no payment or admission" and "withdrawal if you don't pay" to achieve the purpose of defrauding money.
Police Reminder:
Art admissions have strict restrictions such as score lines and unified application procedures. Candidates can check the admission information through the official website of the Education Examination Institute to avoid being deceived.
Scam 5: Confusing forms of higher education
Scam Methods:
Scammers deliberately confuse the difference between online education, adult education and general higher education, claiming that as long as you pay money, you can go to college, or even a major university. After enrollment, I found that it was not the undergraduate college of general higher education at all, but the form of self-study examinations, adult education and so on.
Police Reminder:
Online education, adult education, and self-study examinations are also forms of higher education, but unlike ordinary higher education, the entry threshold is relatively low. After candidates and parents get the admission notice, they must verify the admission information through official channels to confirm the type of school running of the admissions university to avoid being deceived.
Scam 6: Impersonating education department staff to commit fraud
Scam Methods:
After obtaining candidates' identity information through illegal channels, criminals pretend to be education department staff and other identities to fraudulently obtain deposits or handling fees on the grounds that they are eligible for "scholarships" or "college entrance examination subsidies".
Police Reminder:
When receiving calls and messages from staff claiming to be in colleges and universities, education, finance, etc., and to issue "national grants", "return compulsory education fees" and "student support funds", candidates and parents should take the initiative to contact the local education department or school for verification. Do not disclose family names, phone numbers, occupations and other relevant information at will, and insist on not disguising, not trusting, and not transferring.
I wish all students can realize their dreams of ideal universities, once you encounter college entrance examination related scams, please call 110 in time to call the police.
