Promote online dramas part-time

On April 14, Xiaolin, a citizen of Wenshan, saw a part-time advertisement on the Internet, clicked on the ad and jumped to a WeChat mini-program for the promotion of online dramas, and then a stranger added Xiaolin's WeChat and sent a URL link, asking him to click on the link to download an APP called "XX Pictures".

Next, the receptionist in the APP began to guide Xiaolin to carry out the online drama promotion task: the first step is to click the link to enter the webpage and select the online drama that needs to be promoted, take a screenshot and send it to the customer service staff. The second step is to scan the Alipay collection code sent by the customer service to scan the code for payment. The third step is to send a screenshot to the customer service after the payment is successful, and the customer service will earn the commission for rebates.

Xiaolin's first recharge of 3 yuan rebate 5 yuan, the second recharge of 88 yuan rebate 132 yuan, when the third recharge of 388 yuan, the customer service staff said that Xiaolin's operation was wrong, and he had to recharge multiple times to repair the data, so Xiaolin recharged 2999 yuan according to the instructions of the other party, and the customer service also asked Xiaolin to continue to recharge. At this time, Xiaolin received a call from the anti-fraud center and realized that he had been deceived and lost more than 3,000 yuan in total.

Cross-border e-commerce brings goods

When Xiao Qi, a citizen of Wenshan, was brushing Kuaishou at home, he saw a project called "Tik Tok Cross-border E-commerce", claiming that he only needed a mobile phone to make money. Xiao Qi took the initiative to add the other party's WeChat, and the other party said that the project was to assist in the establishment of overseas Douyin e-commerce stores, help push streams and provide supply warehouses. If someone buys something in the store they have opened, they can pick up the goods from the source station and send them out, and earn the price difference, and only need to charge 7% of the total profit of the store as a cooperation commission every month.

Xiao Qi was moved, so he successfully registered the store according to the guidance of the other party, and clicked on the website given by the other party to select and purchase products. After choosing, the website customer service told you that you need to use US dollars to pay, and you need to click on the purchase card to redeem US dollars. At the same time, inform Xiaoqi that the store's credit score is insufficient, and it is necessary to purchase points to improve the store's reputation. Xiao Qi listened to the other party's transfer a total of 2 times and was deceived of more than 21,000 yuan.

Case analysis

Criminals widely place advertisements for "cross-border e-commerce" through social platforms to attract traffic, attract victims to consult with inducing language such as "no need to hoard goods", "lie down to earn" and "high returns", and then impersonate official personnel to induce victims to enter fake e-commerce platforms in the name of attracting investment. After the victim successfully "opened a store", the criminals asked the victim to transfer money to the designated account under the pretext of "advance payment" and "foreign exchange settlement". They will also ask the victim to buy points to improve their reputation or pay a "deposit" under the pretext of "insufficient store credit score" and "delivery delay" until the victim realizes that he has been deceived.

Don't trust strangers online

A cross-border e-commerce platform with "zero inventory" and "lying to earn".
