Fraudsters use the tone of caring about the work of their subordinates to make the victims feel flattered and feel flattered, thinking that their work has been affirmed by the leadership, so as to lower their vigilance.

● Create a tense and oppressive atmosphere

Fraudsters take advantage of the victim's fear of the leader and dare not question it, and frequently use urging words such as "as soon as possible", "immediately" and "immediately", which not only creates tension, but also takes advantage of the time difference to reduce the possibility of the victim verifying the authenticity of the transfer request.

Nanjing Anti-Fraud Center reminds you

● If you encounter a stranger who requests to transfer money after adding QQ or WeChat as a leader, be sure to verify the true identity of the other party in person or by phone, voice and other channels.

● In communication, if it is inconvenient to question the other party, you can ask the other party some questions tactfully, such as specific people or things, so as to verify the identity of the other party.

● Pay attention to protecting personal and organizational information in work and life, so as to prevent it from being grasped by scammers, so as to carry out precise fraud.

● In the case of not confirming the authenticity, do not disclose, do not trust, do not transfer.
