The person involved in the case has been criminally detained by the police in accordance with the law
Recently, the Changshou Road Police Station of the Putuo Branch of the Shanghai Municipal Public Security Bureau received a report from Mr. Qu, a citizen, that he traded a brand-name watch worth 130,000 yuan with a man in a commercial plaza in person, and suspected that the other party had transferred the real watch during the transaction. After receiving the report, the police immediately rushed to the scene and found the person who called the police, Mr. Qu, and the man who was suspected of transferring the watch, Lin.
The information posted by the reporter on the second-hand trading platform
It turned out that in the afternoon of the same day, Lin saw the information that Mr. Qu transferred a brand-name watch at a price of 130,000 yuan on a second-hand platform. Due to the large value of the watch, the two parties agreed to complete the transaction after inspecting the goods in person at the mall that night.
At about 20 o'clock, Mr. Qu and Lin came to the mall to meet as promised, and after seeing the watch brought by Mr. Qu, Lin proposed to go to the toilet to test the waterproofness of the watch. So, accompanied by Mr. Qu, Lin went to the toilet of the mall and tested the waterproofness of the watch. After testing the waterproofness, Lin asked to enter the toilet again for testing on the grounds of testing the pressure resistance of the watch. In this way, Lin took Mr. Qu's watch into the toilet three times on the pretext of testing the watch. When Lin completed the third test, he returned the watch to Mr. Qu, saying that he didn't want to buy it. As a result, Mr. Qu found that the watch that Lin returned to him was not his own, and suspected that he was transferred by the other party, so he immediately called the police for help.
However, in the face of the accusations of the policeman, Lin insisted that he did not transfer the contract, and said that what Mr. Qu took out at the beginning was a fake watch. In order to find out the truth, the police took both sides to the police station for further investigation.
When he came to the police station, a record of missed calls that Lin's mobile phone rang many times attracted the attention of the police. Calling back, it was an "errand" guy who answered the phone. The little brother told the police that he received an order for "errands" at about 21:30, and the other party asked him to go to a certain compartment in the toilet on the second floor of the mall to pick up a watch lost behind the toilet lid, and keep the watch, and the other party would contact the little brother to retrieve the watch the next day. After learning that the watch might be an item involved in the case, the little brother immediately sent the watch to the police station. Mr. Qu confirmed that the watch sent back by the little brother was the watch he had been transferred.
In front of a large amount of evidence, Lin truthfully confessed to the police the facts of the crime of stealing with a fake watch and a real watch from the police. According to Lin's confession, he saw on the Internet that Mr. Qu was selling a second-hand brand-name watch at a price of 130,000 yuan, and thought that he had a channel to buy a high-imitation watch, so he became a thief. Lin took the initiative to contact Mr. Qu, and after agreeing to trade in person in the evening, Lin set off from Suzhou to the trading location in Shanghai. During this period, Lin spent 500 yuan to buy a high-imitation watch of the same style, ready to adjust the package during the transaction.

In order to find an opportunity to adjust the watch, Lin entered the toilet of the mall three times during the transaction on the pretext of testing the watch, and finally hid the real and fake watch in a compartment of the toilet under the pretext of urgently needing the toilet. Subsequently, Lin placed an order for "errands" in the toilet cubicle, falsely claiming that he had accidentally lost the watch in the toilet, and asked the little brother to enter the toilet cubicle to pick up the watch for him and keep it for him temporarily. Lin never thought that his carefully planned "golden cicada shelling" strategy would be recognized by the police so quickly.
At present, the criminal suspect Lin has been criminally detained by the Putuo police in accordance with the law on suspicion of theft, and the case is under further investigation.
