During the festival, sending red envelopes and grabbing red envelopes through WeChat, Alipay, etc., has become a new way for many young people to bless their relatives and friends. A woman received a red envelope of 10,000 yuan by "blinding" the password on Alipay.
According to Zhumadian Radio, on February 10, 2024, the first day of the Lunar New Year, Mr. Wang, a citizen, prepared a red envelope of 20,000 yuan for his parents, and he sent out the password red envelope after setting the password "Happy New Year to my parents" through Alipay. To Mr. Wang's surprise, after his mother received one of the 10,000 yuan red envelopes, the other 10,000 yuan red envelope was "taken" away by a stranger, so he quickly called the police.
According to the report, Xing Jingyao, a police officer who has been engaged in criminal investigation work for many years, has encountered this new form of crime of stealing Alipay password red envelopes for the first time, and he saw from the Alipay interface that it was a male user from other provinces who snatched Mr. Wang's red envelopes, and Mr. Wang also left a message on the Alipay platform, but the other party did not respond. Xing Jingyao conducted an in-depth study of Alipay's password red envelope rules: the sender of the password red envelope can customize the password content and the number of red envelopes, and anyone can receive the password red envelope as long as they enter the correct password, but if the red envelope in the password is not all collected, others cannot set the password red envelope with the same password. He judged that because the red envelope receiving password set by Mr. Wang was too simple, someone used the password red envelope to set rules and "steal" Mr. Wang's red envelope.
After contacting Alipay, it was learned that the Alipay holder was Liang, and at the same time, it was learned that Liang frequently used Alipay to send and receive Alipay password red envelopes before and after the Spring Festival, combined with other clues in the case, the police determined that the account holder Liang was suspected of deliberately committing a crime by using Alipay's password red envelope rules. After researching and judging Liang's personal information, police officer Li Hongbo reported to the relevant departments for approval, and listed the man as a fugitive online.
On February 26, the suspect Liang was arrested by the police of the Guigang Station Police Station of the Nanning Railway Public Security Bureau, and on March 1, the police of the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Sub-bureau rushed to Guangxi to bring the suspect Liang back. According to Liang's confession: his Alipay account has been used by his ex-girlfriend Lin, and he has not asked for it back after the breakup, and he does not know about the "stealing" red envelopes. After verifying the information provided by Liang, the police determined that Lin was suspected of committing a major crime, and by publishing information on the Internet, the news that the suspect Lin was arrested by the police of the Tangxia Police Station in Tianhe District, Guangzhou City soon came.

On April 9, the police of the Criminal Investigation Brigade rushed to Guangzhou to bring the suspect Lin back, Lin truthfully confessed that he had been using Liang's Alipay account, and on the afternoon of the first day of the Lunar New Year on February 10, he was bored while resting in the room and thought about whether he could grab some other people's password red envelopes, and he tried for a long time but did not get it, so he said "Happy New Year to my parents" When he entered it, he grabbed a large red envelope with a face value of 10,000 yuan, and when he saw Mr. Wang's message asking him for a red envelope on the Alipay platform, the suspect Lin always held a fluke mentality and did not return the red envelope.
At present, the suspect Lin has been taken compulsory measures in accordance with the law, and the 10,000 yuan red envelope has been fully returned to the victim, and the case is under further investigation.
