Recently, the official WeChat of the public security in many places issued an urgent reminder:
Recently, a number of community owners have appeared in a "love scam", scammers pretend to be owners, through various ways to gain the trust of residents in the group, take the opportunity to defraud money.
"Love Scam"
"Neighbors, excuse me, kneel and beg everyone to save the children. Recently, in a community owner group, the "owner" with the online name "Xue" sent a fundraising message in the group, saying, "The child is 7 years old, fighting cancer for three years, the current situation is very urgent, the hospital is urging to pay, there is really no way, ask the neighbor to save the child......"
Seeing that a child was sick, many kind-hearted neighbors in the group donated money and gave their love. "Snow" also thanked the neighbors in the group.
However, some attentive owners found that this "neighbor" not only posted fundraising information in one group, but also posted fundraising information as a neighbor in other community owner groups.
Many well-meaning neighbors have made donations
Subsequently, the owners of the community questioned this, asking which property it was in the community, and "Xue" explained in the group that he had been doing business outside all the year round, and had recently returned to the group for the New Year, and said that this was the child of a relative, in order to spread the news.
But such a statement does not convince the owners, "It's so hateful, taking advantage of everyone's sympathy to defraud." ”
The owners questioned it
After the incident, the property and some owners added "Xue" on WeChat and sent private messages to her, but the other party did not reply and withdrew from the owner group.
This move further confirms the suspicion of fraud by the other party. The property immediately reported to the police, and the case is currently under further investigation.
Except for donation scams
Some of the community owners in the group
There was also such a group of people
Selling alcohol
Selling milk powder
It is understood that recently, a number of owners have appeared in the "help sister, brother to deal with wine", "spell single camel milk powder" and other information, although the sales subject is different, but the routine is basically the same, are to change the soup without changing the medicine.
How to be on guard?
Community owners should not scan unknown QR codes at will, do not believe in the sales information in the group, do not add unfamiliar WeChat accounts, do not join unfamiliar WeChat groups, and do not click on unknown links at will, so as not to cause property losses.
The manager of the owner group should assume the corresponding supervision responsibilities, and once a suspicious person or situation is found, he should promptly and properly come forward to clarify and deal with it, and kick the suspicious person out of the group chat.
