Fraud is told by the case
At the beginning of this year, the victim Lao Zhao received a strange phone call at home, and the other party recommended a stock QQ group to Lao Zhao, and there were tutors in the group every day to analyze stock trends and internal news, and it didn't take long for the group administrator to add Lao Zhao's QQ number, and sent him an installation package called "stock speculation software", and Lao Zhao invested five funds under the guidance of "customer service" after installation, totaling 243,000 yuan. A month later, when Lao Zhao wanted to withdraw money, he found that he could not withdraw it, and after contacting the administrator, the other party said that it was a problem with the banking system, and after a few days, Lao Zhao found that the "stock trading software" could not be opened, and then he realized that he had been deceived.
What is a fake investment scam?
Fake investment and financial fraud refers to scammers building fake investment apps and platforms, falsely claiming that they have guidance and insider information from high-ranking people, and they can make a steady profit without losing money. Use high returns as bait to lure victims into investing.
Step 1: Drainage, layout
Fraudsters publish information promoting investment and financial management such as stocks, foreign exchange, futures, and virtual currencies through various channels such as online social tools, text messages, and web pages, or place advertisements on online platforms such as official accounts, Weibo, Douyin, Kuaishou, and Zhihu to find victims and establish contacts.
Step 2: Brainwashing, induction
After establishing contact, you can gain your initial trust through various ways such as chatting and exchanging investment experience, pulling people into the "investment and financial management" group chat, and listening to live lectures by "investment experts" and "financial mentors".
Step 3: Sweetness, harvesting
After defrauding trust, gradually induce you to log in to the fake website provided by it, scan the QR code to download the mobile app shared by it, guide you to carry out investment and financial management operations, guide you to test the waters with initial small investments, obtain low rebates, and then gain further trust, paving the way for inducing you to continue to increase investment.
Police remind
1. Don't be tempted by the so-called high returns
The investment projects created by the fraud gang are all ultra-high annualized returns, often more than 20%, or even as high as 50%, and "make sure you don't lose money". Don't believe it!
2. Be cautious about making friends and don't blindly join groups
Online dating, be vigilant, don't trust others, don't blindly join the investment and financial group, don't believe the so-called "experts", "masters", "big V", "big coffee" and other rhetoric and impulsively follow the investment.
3. Identify fake apps
The illegal APP produced by the fraud gang cannot be listed on the official mobile app market, and can only be downloaded by clicking on the URL link or scanning the QR code. Therefore, the unofficial application market downloads are all black platforms, don't download them!
4. Be wary of transferring money to personal accounts
To purchase wealth management products, you need to sign an agreement, and the funds will be automatically deducted. If you ask to transfer money to a personal account or the corporate account does not match the name of the platform, it is a fraudulent platform, so don't transfer money.
