Recently, the staff of the Wuhan Huangpu branch of the Bank of China became "liars", but the people they "deceived" were liars. On the same day, 86-year-old Uncle Wang came to Bank of China Huangpu Sub-branch to inquire about account operation. The staff of the bank found that Uncle Wang had transferred more than 40 yuan from his securities account to his current account at 9:19 on the same day. At this time, Uncle Wang claimed that a WeChat friend on the Internet introduced him to a high-yield investment and wealth management business. After listening to Uncle Wang's statement, considering that Uncle Wang is an elderly person, the staff became vigilant and immediately publicized to customers that the investment should pass the official certification of the formal platform, and introduced many fraud cases, and at the same time reminded that there are many scams for the elderly now, don't trust strangers. Uncle Wang thanked the bank for the kind reminder, said that he would not trust the information from unreliable sources, and then left. Although the customer had left, the staff of the Huangpu branch of the Bank of China sorted out the information that afternoon, the more they thought about it, the more wrong it became, so they inquired about the customer's account transactions through the system again and found that at 13:32 and 15:12, Uncle Wang's current account was transferred to a trading limited company, totaling 100,000 yuan. The staff of the Huangpu branch of the Bank of China contacted Uncle Wang again to ask the reason. Uncle Wang said that he personally transferred the money to the investment platform introduced by his WeChat friend through mobile banking. The staff told Uncle Wang that his money had been transferred to a trading company, and that the business scope of this trading company was only commerce, and at the same time reported the above situation to the person in charge of the branch. The person in charge of the bank immediately notified the counter to mark the account, controlled the non-counter transactions of the account, and called 110 to call the police. The staff of the Huangpu branch of the Bank of China, accompanied by the police officers, found Uncle Wang and his family to understand the situation. After tireless persuasion, Uncle Wang finally came to his senses. Thinking that the 100,000 yuan pension money he had worked so hard to save had been cheated away, Uncle Wang couldn't help but cry, and his family was also very anxious. "I must help the uncle recover this money!" The staff of the Huangpu branch of the Bank of China hurriedly discussed with the police officers, and then an action to "deceive" the scammer was immediately launched. According to Uncle Wang's recollection, the fraudsters knew that there were still funds that had not yet been transferred out. As a result, the staff of the branch asked Uncle Wang to take the initiative to contact the criminals, falsely claiming that he would make additional investments in the next step, but before making additional investments, he needed to test the withdrawal function of the platform. But the criminals were unmoved, saying that the investment and wealth management platform has been established for many years, with safe performance and stable income. In order to continue to shake the criminals, the staff and police officers of the Huangpu branch of the Bank of China told Uncle Wang that they needed to fully understand the entire operation process of this investment and financial management to be at ease, otherwise the remaining funds would not be transferred. After testing the withdrawal function of the platform, be sure to transfer all the remaining funds.
The hard work paid off, and the criminals were really fooled, and that night, the other party returned 100,000 yuan to the customer's account.
Seeing that the defrauded 100,000 yuan was returned, Uncle Wang and his family expressed their sincere gratitude to the staff of Bank of China!
