Case review

Cancel your "Monthly Payment" membership
Mr. Li in Lishui District received a video call, and the other party said that the "monthly payment" membership of the short video platform opened by Mr. Li had expired, and the fee would be automatically deducted if it was not closed. Mr. Li said that he did not open it, and the other party explained that it may be caused by a misoperation when browsing the mall, and told Mr. Li that he can close the operation now. Mr. Li believed that he needed to close the "monthly payment" membership, and then the other party sent Mr. Li an unfamiliar link, and Mr. Li clicked into a so-called "cancellation center", and the other party told Mr. Li that in order to complete the closing operation, he needed to transfer the "deposit" to the designated account, and said that the "deposit" would be automatically returned after completing the closing operation. Mr. Li was in a hurry to close, so he scanned the code and paid more than 28,000 yuan.

Live streaming
75-year-old Grandma Li in Qinhuai District swiped a video at home, and the anchor in the video blew the sky, saying that as long as the account is operated, you can make money lying at home. Grandma Li was very impressed, so she left a message saying that she wanted to join. Soon after, the other party added Grandma Li's WeChat and sent a message, "Now we have launched a tutorial, only 3999 yuan, you can enjoy the hand-in-hand teaching service." Grandma Li was a little unhappy when she saw that she had to pay the money, and just wanted to say that she would not participate, but the other party said, "If you don't earn 3,999 yuan in the follow-up, you can get a full refund." Grandma Li saw that she could get a full refund if she didn't make money, and felt that she didn't lose money, so she transferred 3,999 yuan. Later, Grandma Li found that no one had drained her live broadcast room, and when she contacted customer service again, she had been blocked.

Live stock trading
Not long ago, Ms. Chen from Jiangbei New Area watched a live broadcast at home to teach people to speculate in stocks. Ms. Chen was very interested, so she clicked on the "little windmill" at the bottom of the screen according to the other party's instructions, added an unfamiliar WeChat, and then the other party sent her a link to a "stock trading website" (actually a fake online investment and wealth management platform). Ms. Chen followed the guidance of the other party to buy a digital currency "stock", and did not realize that she had been deceived until she found that the platform could not log in when she was about to withdraw money, and lost more than 210,000 yuan.

Like to do the task
Recently, Mr. Ding in Qixia District saw an advertisement for part-time job swiping on the Internet, and clicked on the link to add the contact information of the other party. The other party asked Mr. Ding to download an APP, saying that he could get a rebate by doing tasks according to the requirements on the APP. So Mr. Ding operated according to the APP prompts, followed the designated account on the short video platform, liked the designated video, and at first Mr. Ding easily completed the task and got the rebate. Then, Mr. Ding began to try to do some high-value tasks, such as buying point cards and recharging on the e-commerce shopping platform, and when Mr. Ding completed the task and was ready to withdraw money, the other party said that his account was locked and he needed to do five consecutive tasks to unlock it. In order to successfully withdraw cash, Mr. Ding continued to buy point cards and recharge on the e-commerce shopping platform, and contacted the other party again after completing 5 orders, only to realize that he had been deceived and lost more than 35,000 yuan.
Routine analysis
Criminals impersonate multiple identities
Let's use a variety of words first
Or throw bait to gain trust
and then induce transfers for various reasons
To drain the victim's money
Then block and delete and disappear
Jiangsu police remind you
When receiving any call claiming to be the platform's customer service, you must be cautious, and carefully verify the identity of the other party when it comes to information such as "remittance", "transfer", "deduction" and "investment".
Don't easily add the contact information of strangers, protect personal information, and don't believe advertisements on short video platforms such as high-tech part-time jobs, live broadcast marketing, likes and assistance, and investment and stock recommendations.
If you encounter fraud, you should keep the chat screenshots, transfer records and other evidence, and report to the police in time!
