Everyone may have heard of the "pig killing plate", but do you know the "new pig killing plate" on the grounds of renting?
The main target of this "new type of pig killing plate" scam is landlords, homestay owners and other landlords, and after posting information on the Internet, scammers pretend to be tenants to contact, and wait until they gradually establish trust with landlords, and then slowly induce landlords to invest, and landlords don't know what to do, so they are deceived
Case review
Ms. Lin, who lives in Taiyuan City, Shanxi Province, planned to rent out an idle house, so she posted the listing information on multiple rental platforms, however, the tenants who came to consult were not in line with Ms. Lin's wishes due to the price, lease period, requirements, etc., until half a month later, the "perfect tenant" appeared
There is something special about this "tenant".
At first, I didn't ask about the situation of the house first, but first sent my identity documents to gain trust, and then gradually established such an image in the chat, and the work was decent - the 8-year-old daughter of the securities company - sensible and obedient, and the lease term problem - started in three years
Rent issues - no bargaining, Ms. Lin is very happy to meet such an ideal tenant, waiting to sign the contract to collect rent
After a period of contact, Ms. Lin and the "tenant" gradually became acquainted, in addition to chatting about some things in daily life, the "tenant" also told Ms. Lin some "amazing" things: he found a loophole in securities trading, and at a specific time, he could steadily appreciate the value by carrying out special operations
A few days later, the "tenant" suddenly sent an anxious message, which probably means that he can't operate the securities trading system for something today, and wants to ask Ms. Lin to help him
After that, she sent the link and account password, and Ms. Lin thought that the operation would not be difficult, so she used the other party's account password to operate it again, and as a result, she earned tens of thousands of yuan in just ten minutes
At this time, Ms. Lin couldn't hold back, and took the initiative to ask how the other party did it, she began to invest with the "tenant", and transferred more than 50 times to the "tenant" in less than a month, with an amount of up to 5.04 million yuan, until the "tenant" blackened it, Ms. Lin realized that she had been deceived, although she had successfully withdrawn several times during the period, but still lost 4.9 million yuan
Routine Analysis:
1. Scammers accurately select targets through rental software or second-hand trading platforms, add friends with the landlord, and then package themselves as "perfect tenants" in the conversation on the pretext of renting a house, and provide fake ID documents and photos to gain the landlord's trust.
2. When the scammer chats with the landlord, revealing that he has a way to invest, and when he sees that the landlord is interested or relaxes his vigilance, he takes the opportunity to disclose the information of the fake investment website to the landlord, and even offers to let the landlord help him to operate the market to attract the landlord, and induce the landlord to "make money together" through the cooperation between the scammers.
3. The scammer allows the landlord to make a small profit through the operation, and after the landlord increases investment, the scammer will disappear with the money and block the person.
Anti-Fraud Reminder:
1. All online investment and financial management that advertises "inside information" and "stable and high returns" are frauds. 2. Don't trust investment and financial management recommended by informal channels. 3. Relevant online platforms should establish the concept of anti-fraud for the whole people and the whole of society, and strengthen anti-fraud reminders for platform users. 4. Once deceived, call 110 to call the police in time.
