Have you ever noticed that someone close to you is lying?
A friend once told me a fallacious theory, some lies are discovered or exposed, which can only prove that the lie is too small, and when the lie is big enough, even if it is full of flaws, no one will not believe it, and some people will even take the initiative to help you realize the lie.
This friend used to be a prosecutor named Chen Fayan. In the 10 years she has been in the industry, she has specialized in prosecuting criminals for the country, and she will handle the most brutal serious and major cases in the local area, as well as important cases involving dozens of people.
She describes the case she handles: a case involving materials that can fill a 20-square-meter house, and when she solves a drug trafficking case, there will be no more drugs in the local area for many years.
Among the cases she has handled over the years, the most impressive one is a "fraud case".
In this case, the reaction was extremely bizarre.
Someone told a big lie and packaged a mentally ill person as a "stock trading genius". Many people know that they are losing money, but they also take the initiative to help them lie and hide from others.
What's even stranger is that when the scammers are caught, those victims seem to be addicted to lies -
Not only are they unwilling to recover their losses, but they also say that they are willing to be deceived.
The old leader finally relented and agreed to see me.
I call him an "old leader", not because he has been my leader, but because he also works in the political and legal system.
We wanted to get to know a man through him – the "god of stocks" in local legends.
This person is like the stock speculation tycoon "Mr. Bao" in the hit TV series at the beginning of the year, in his early twenties, he learned to speculate in stocks with an old man and bought a luxury car and a mansion.
However, some people reported to us that this teenager had no experience in stock trading, but he was able to attract a large number of people to invest in him, and finally went bankrupt.
It was only after our procuratorate took over this fund-raising fraud case that we discovered the strangeness.
These victims who were cheated of money by the juvenile stock god chose to remain silent in the face of the investigation, and the more miserable the people were, the more unwilling they were to recover the money.
This old leader of mine is one of his investors, and he has lost tens of millions of yuan, but he is also the one who resists the most in the face of investigation.
I had just worked in the prosecutor's office for three years and was still a rookie prosecutor. I need to find the old leader to check the amount of money I was defrauded, and I need him to come out to testify.
The old leader used to be very prestigious in our place. Our place belongs to the prefecture-level city of the southeast province, and the old leader once served as the "number one" of a strong department in the jurisdiction with the best economic development. He sat in this position, both professionally and leadershiply.
This former man of the hour, a wise and decent old leader in the eyes of others, was involved in a fraud case involving a huge amount of money, which is embarrassing.
At that time, I felt that it was not easy to grasp the proportion of contacting the old leaders. I can only handle the case in accordance with the law as the premise and try to take care of his face.
In order to verify the situation face-to-face, I called him many times, and he did not agree to meet him, and always emphasized to me in the tone of the leader that "meeting is not necessary, meaningless ......" but I am so persistent, the more he refuses, the more energetic I become.
Now that the opportunity for this case to be returned for supplementary investigation twice has been exhausted, and if there is no breakthrough opening, the young man may be given a lenient punishment, and the twenty or thirty victims involved in this case will have to lose tens of millions.
What's more, the old leader himself also suffered heavy losses, with a loss of more than 10 million, most of which he borrowed from banks, relatives and friends.
When he was deceived, he was not retired, he had social prestige, good credit, the bank was willing to lend him money, and relatives and friends also gave him money with peace of mind.
After the thunderstorm of the "young stock god", the old leader's money was not returned. The bank couldn't recover the arrears and interest, and relatives and friends couldn't see a return, so they sued the old leader.
The old leader has been saddled with several loan lawsuits, and not only all his belongings have been executed by the court, but he has also been included in the list of dishonest people.
He was about to retire in a year, and when he encountered such a thing, he was left behind for a long time. The old leader was very annoyed by this incident and was unwilling to expose his scars in front of others. We young people are usually "little kids" in his heart, and now they don't want to see us, and it's normal to have resistance, which hurts self-esteem too much. I can understand that.
But the actual amount of money he was defrauded is too large, and there are millions of discrepancies between the actual amount we investigated. I can only touch this hard stubble.
After many ineffective communications with the old leader, I decided to "do business".
Before calling that day, I silently recited what I wanted to say to him countless times in my heart, repeatedly reminding myself that my tone must be more serious and resolute. In short, I want to make it clear to him that as a senior, I respect him, but as a party to the case, he has the obligation to cooperate with the investigation.
I plucked up the courage to call him again and exchanged a few pleasantries, "You are also a party and an old leader, and you have the obligation to cooperate with our investigation! It is reasonable and legal for you to appear in court! Think about the other victims!"
He probably realized that I was getting stronger, and he realized that I wasn't going to give up easily.
The old leader said: "We can meet, but not in the case handling area of the procuratorate." I'll send you an address and we'll go to a tea room to talk. ”
The tea room was very secluded, in an abandoned antique complex, and we went in and around for a long time before we ran into him.
After the meeting, the old leader did not greet me, and he did not even mean to greet us.
I glanced at him, he was wearing a brownish-gray pilling jacket, a half-worn dark red down waistcoat, and a dark tweed cap that covered most of his face, a very ordinary middle-aged uncle. He is in good shape, after all, he has seen the world and has not been easily defeated.
However, he obviously doesn't want to meet acquaintances like this, and he doesn't want to have too much in-depth communication with us, which is in line with his image of "rejecting people thousands of miles away" on the phone.
On that day, my colleagues and I did not wear procuratorial uniforms, but only brought a prosecutor's card, a paper and pen to record the confession.
After we took a look, he led the way in front and we followed. I watched as his back bent slightly, looking a little lonely. My colleagues and I feel sorry for him.
In the tea room, there is a full set of pen, ink, paper, and inkstones for writing and painting, as well as teacups and tea sets. The old leader should come to this place often, it is very secluded, to be precise, it is a little decadent, and it is really difficult to find it if you are not a regular visitor.
When we went in, he said a random word: "Sit." But he didn't order tea after he sat down, which shows that he didn't want to talk to us for too long.
Without asking for our opinion, he naturally and skillfully lit a cigarette and spit out the smoke on his own. Seeing that we were waiting for him, he didn't forget to ask, "Do you want to smoke?"
My colleague and I are both lesbians, and when we heard this, we were a little surprised, but politely declined.
It seems that when we came to his territory, we changed from case handlers to his subordinates. This old leader's ability to control the field is still so strong.
It doesn't matter, it's okay for him to put on a leadership stand, and I'm happy to maintain his self-esteem, I just want his answer.
For the sake of norms, I showed him my prosecutor's card. After checking his identity information, I cut straight to the point and asked him to systematically tell what happened.
The old leader was a little impatient: "The matter has been made clear by the public security as early as possible. ”
I persuaded me with good words: "Old leader, you are also an expert in law, and the reason why I am looking for you again must be because the public security stage has not been clarified." ”
But he replied lightly: "Lending money to others, you can't get it back, it's that simple." "Sure enough, he wanted to send us away in a few words.
We can only ask him to recount the process of meeting this young stock god. I think at least we need to know why he, as a victim, wanted to protect the fraudster instead of reporting it.
The old leader's words began in 2007, when he said that there was a legendary teenager in his hometown that year.
This young man was only in his early twenties at the time, his real name was Tu Qianhua, and it is said that he had accumulated hundreds of millions of assets through stock speculation, not only with strong strength, but also very low-key and mysterious. But everyone wants to get involved with him, and is proud that he agreed to take his own money.
At that time, everyone who had a few spare dollars in his hand fantasized about changing his life through Tu Qianhua's counterattack and reaching the pinnacle of life.
At this time, a friend introduced the legendary teenager to the old leader.
In front of the old leader, my friend proved on the spot that the money invested in this young man, in addition to getting back the principal and interest, the income was very good.
The old leader saw the young man's Maserati parked in the courtyard, and the shining Swiss watch in the other party's hand, and he was moved.
When he came home in the evening, he and his wife gathered all their belongings and prepared to invest in the "young stock god". The old leader's belongings were limited, so he borrowed from relatives and friends and from banks. According to bank transfer records, the old leader transferred 23 million yuan before and after. The other party transferred back more than 5 million yuan to him on the grounds of returning interest. There is still a difference of more than 18 million yuan in the middle.
However, the old leader denied the difference of more than 10 million yuan, and resolutely said that he would only lend the "stock god" the principal of 8 or 9 million.
I put the bank transfer records in front of him, stared into his eyes, and asked him to give a reasonable explanation.
He didn't even look at the materials and said: "It's been so long, how can I remember it, anyway, I lent him so many ......"
He gave people the feeling on the spot that he wanted to "protect" this young stock god.
The old leader may not know that the "stock god" said in the interrogation room that he did not know him at all, and did not admit the existence of this loan!
If the old leader can't speak clearly, then we can only guess that the two of them privately traded the money in cash, even if it is relatively unlikely.
The final result was that I could only follow what the old leader said, and I gave this young stock god a loan of only 8 million yuan.
I continued to persistently ask the old leader, hoping that he would think about it again and at least provide us with the IOU.
I never believed that he would care about such a large sum of money, let alone a memory bias!
I am so sure because I work in the procuratorate, and my monthly salary is very small, and my parents have to subsidize the rent and gas money. As a fellow public official, I don't believe he would be so disregarding the hard-earned money he and his relatives have worked so hard to save!
I told him that if the facts were clear, he might be able to try to help him recover some losses, and even if he couldn't recover them, he should let the "stock god" bear his share of responsibility.
The old leader is already my last bargaining chip. I have communicated with the public security case-handling personnel many times about the IOU, and we unanimously infer that the IOU was in the hands of the old leader himself from beginning to end. It's just that he doesn't admit it, and even more so doesn't want to provide it.
With a "snap", the old leader lit another cigarette, looked at me calmly and said, "I really can't find the IOU." ”
I took a deep breath and slowly probed the old leader's eyes, inwardly deciding whether I should continue or give up.
The years have carved a deep mark on the old leader's face, but there is no lack of perseverance in his eyes.
I suddenly felt that the old leaders kept silent about us, maybe it was not just the seniors who wanted to find face in front of the juniors.
He should have clearly realized as early as the time of the case that if the "stock god" was arrested, it would be really difficult to get the money back. If he cooperates with our investigation, he will only make himself a laughing stock of colleagues and acquaintances in the unit, and even the involvement will become bigger and bigger, causing unnecessary social impact.
The reason why he agreed to meet was only because I was difficult and had to deal with me.
Finally, we had to end this brief conversation.
I didn't plan to let go of this case so easily, I put the idea of investigation in the hometown of the old leader.
The level of economic development here is average, and it is a backward area in our province.
In the early years, due to limited land resources, the locals had nowhere to make a living, so they carried their bags and drifted to Europe to do business. Later, it also took root in Europe. After earning foreign currency, these overseas Chinese became the first batch of "rich people" in the local area to make a fortune.
They brought their wealth from overseas back home. The "young stock god" naturally also absorbed the money of these overseas Chinese.
The overseas Chinese did not expect that the "stock gods" would lose their money and run away.
After the case was discovered, the case-handling organs contacted the overseas Chinese victims who were abroad one by one.
And the overseas Chinese, like the old leaders, are unwilling to cooperate with the investigation, because they are afraid that returning to China will delay their business, and the cost of round-trip travel is also high, and they understand that it is difficult to get the money back.
Because of the time difference, I always wait until the evening to talk to them on the phone.
One night, it was past 22 o'clock Beijing time, and I was still in the office waiting for a call from overseas Chinese in Germany. This overseas Chinese is called Hu Yongxi, and he agreed to talk to me about the case under my soft and hard bubbles.
He told me in WeChat that only this point is free.
"Ringing ringing ......" I picked up my mobile phone and looked at it, at 22:04, Hu Yongxi's call was still on time.
Since the telephone transcript could not be used as evidence, after verifying my identity, I asked him directly: "Can you go back to China and make a record?"
He immediately appealed, "I really can't leave here, I have no one to take care of my shop, and no one to take care of my children...... In short, he is unwilling to return to China.
I said, "The money that the 'stock god' borrowed from you is not a small amount, and the records you made at the public security organ before are incomplete. If you don't come back and cooperate with the investigation, you may not be able to recover your money, and the 'stock god' will not be punished as it should be. ”
He threw over directly: "I won't do the transcript, and I don't want the lost money, so you can do whatever you want......"
For a while, the old leaders and overseas Chinese became deadlocks.
In this case, the victim is dead, and the suspect is also dead.
During the investigation stage, the public security organs' interrogation of the "juvenile stock god" came to a standstill.
He told the police: "Around 2003, I started to take out my own money to speculate in stocks, and in the process of stock trading, there were losses and wins, and I forgot the specific situation. ”
He also didn't know about the situation of the old leader, saying that he had not received a loan from the old leader and did not know the old leader at all.
In 2008, when the old leader lent money to the "god of stocks", he caught up with the stock market in a period of great turmoil. Many shareholders are folded in it, including the "stock god". How could he not remember the more than 20 million life-saving money lent to him by the old leader? Not to mention that I had found the bank transfer records.
When I combed through his confession, I found that the victim involved a large amount of money had already been returned or had paid high interest, or he simply pretended to be stupid and said that he couldn't remember.
Victims such as the veteran leaders and overseas Chinese did not cooperate with the investigation, and the police could not get evidence against the victims. He has been playing Tai Chi with the case-handling personnel, and his attitude towards cooperating with the investigation is very good, and his confession does not match the preface and afterword, which contradicts himself.
When the police handed over the information to me, they said that this man also had an innocent face, which made it easy to believe him. And his very confusing justifications made the police suspect that he had mental problems.
For this reason, the police made a point of asking his family and friends about his mental condition.
In her testimony, his mother said that the "young stock god" had behaved strangely since he was a child and had been treated in a psychiatric hospital. Take medicine all the time.
A friend he met while worshipping Buddha said, "After we met, the landlord reported that he would hit his head by self-harm. Later, I could only help him find a new house. He has obvious abnormal behavior. ”
Fortunately, an appraisal agency was entrusted to conduct a psychiatric appraisal of the "juvenile stock god". The results showed that he had paranoid tendencies, but he had full capacity for criminal responsibility and was able to stand trial.
This also allowed his interrogation to continue, and the police were able to give me more information about the person.
After graduating from junior high school, the "stock god" stayed at home and did not work. His father ran a shoemaking workshop and was a businessman with many friends.
The father told the police that in 2003, his son met an old man by chance and learned to trade stocks with him. Then the son begged to buy a computer and wanted to see if he could make money by trading stocks. After the computer was bought, the son borrowed money from his sister to speculate in stocks, and the family did not know how much money he made.
A year later, his son suddenly asked him to borrow 10,000 yuan, saying that he was using it to speculate in stocks.
He paid 10,000 yuan at the time. I did make money. He began to brag to his friends about his son's stock trading to make money. This made the friends next to him invest money in his son one after another. After these friends got the profits, the son's fame slowly spread.
He said that his son was very bold, and in order to absorb more money, he promised most lenders a high interest rate of 40% or even 50% per annum. Never refuse money that comes on your own initiative.
According to what we learned, the stock god raised the first funds through his father's friends, and no one knew about making money from stock trading, but he spent more than 1.3 million yuan to buy a Mercedes-Benz car for his father, which made his father very happy. At that time, million-dollar luxury cars were rare, and his father drove a million-level Mercedes-Benz car on the road, which was the best advertisement for his son.
Soon, the legendary experience of the "young stock god" who speculated in stocks and got rich spread locally.
In those years, the stock market happened to be very good, which boosted the "stock god". Many locals handed over their idle funds to the "stock gods" to speculate in stocks, including those overseas Chinese.
Among these overseas Chinese, I noticed the familiar name, overseas Chinese Hu Yongxi, the man who had to call at ten o'clock in the evening.
Doing business in Germany, he also helped the "stock god" publicity.
He is also one of the friends of the young stock god's father, but the amount of his investment is so large that even the old leader can't compare.
When he began to invest money, he agreed to let the young stock god pay him 55% of the profit first, regardless of the profit or loss of the stock. Hu Yongxi siphoned off 4 million, 2 million, and 1 million cash from here. Later, Hu Yongxi tasted the sweetness, so he introduced his younger brother and sister to invest money in Tu Qianhua's stock speculation, and the cooperation method was to extract 55% of the profit every year, and if he lost, he was considered a "stock god".
During the interrogation, the "stock god" said that Hu Yongxi deliberately emphasized that he should not transfer money, but only cash.
This person is very likely to be one of the few investors who make money on the stock god and do not lose money.
The young stock god admitted in his self-report to the police that in fact, he was a new Chinese person who speculated in stocks, and he really did not make money, and he lost some money.
When we checked, we lost more than 40 million.
The reason why he was able to pay these investors these interests at the beginning was entirely due to a well-connected person like Hu Yongxi, who constantly introduced new investors to the game. But in this way, Hu Yongxi, who invested in the early stage, made money, and the debts he was carrying became more and more huge.
When he realized this, he realized that he couldn't stop because someone was constantly pushing him forward behind him.
Most of them were also friends of his father.
There is a boss surnamed Ji, who also invested money in him in the early days, and agreed to raise 40% of the profit every year regardless of profit or loss.
Later, the stock market was turbulent and experienced a crash. He said that he was under too much pressure and hoped that Boss Ji would reduce the interest. This season, the boss touted that you are the "god of stocks", "the stock market will be good, and you will become the richest man in our province when it gets better." ”
Boss Ji also asked the "stock god" to continue to pay him 40% of the interest and reduce the interest of other borrowers.
These bosses who lent money to the "god of stocks" knew his difficulties, but they wanted to build momentum even more, and often organized a big celebration banquet for the "god of stocks" to celebrate his profits in stocks, so as to attract more people to invest money in the "god of stocks" so that they could get interest.
When the "stock god" was later interrogated, he said, "When I lost my stocks and warrants, there were still many people who bragged to me outside, saying that I had made money. So many people still continue to come to me to invest money, and I myself have a fluke mentality, in order to pay off all the debts, I can make a comeback, so I continue to collect money from others. ”
Of course, this passage does not mean that he is innocent, he only admits the debts he has to face, like the old leader, an investor whose accounts are not clear, and who joined later, he always tries to play tricks on us and forget.
The stock market was in turmoil in 2008. And the snowball of the "stock god" is getting bigger and bigger. He needs to repay the interest and principal of his creditors, and he also wants to turn over in the stock market, all of which need financial support.
In order to obtain more funds, the father and son said that they needed financing to open a company in Hong Kong. The "stock god" took his father to travel to Europe, bought 150,000 yuan of Swiss brand-name watches, and claimed to build villas there.
The "God of Stocks" even bought a Maserati with the 2.9 million yuan he had just borrowed, creating the illusion that he was making money by trading in stocks.
At this time, under the bewitchment of his fellow villagers, the old leader invested in the "stock god" and became a big wrongdoer.
During this period, his mother pulled her best friend to invest money in her son, and his grandmother introduced people around her to invest 1.7 million in her grandson. However, their testimonies all mentioned that they did not know the stock speculation of the "stock god".
In 2009, his wife divorced the "stock god", and before the divorce, the "stock god" transferred 1 million to his father-in-law. We did not try the grounds for divorce. Later, we found out that the "stock god" actually paid off the money of relatives and friends.
One day in the second half of 2010, several lenders took turns calling the "stock god" to ask for a loan, and he realized that he was at the end of his rope and fled with his father.
After the matter was revealed, the family's two houses were mortgaged to the creditors who were the first to get the news, the car was also mortgaged, and the father's shoe factory also went bankrupt, and all the property that could be divided was divided.
During their time in the field, the father and son never tried to find a job to pay off their debts, and they never contacted any lenders.
In 2015, the "stock god" sneaked back to Qingshan County and was arrested. Subsequently, the father went to the public security bureau to turn himself in.
After the "stock god" was brought into the case, he said that part of his remaining funds were used to pay the high "profits" promised to others, and part of the money was used to pay the new arrears after the profits were rolled over. However, it is not mentioned for high consumption and the purchase of luxury goods.
At the beginning of the interrogation of the "stock god", he repeatedly emphasized that he was the real victim, and he was cheated by Hu Yongxi and them.
I later verified that the biggest creditor of the "God of Stocks" was Hu Yongxi, with more than 19 million. The "stock god" insisted that the money was all superimposed on the rolling profits, and the capital and interest had already been withdrawn from the other party. Hu Yongxi did not agree with this statement and was unwilling to return to China to cooperate with the investigation.
It is true that some overseas Chinese returned to China to cooperate with the high cost of the investigation, and Hu Yongxi may have other reasons. We suspect that he will make a steady profit or lose money, and the "stock god" has too many borrowers, too many transfers, and incomplete IOUs, and he has no evidence in his hand to pay Hu Yongxi interest in cash.
The old leader is the second largest creditor of the "God of Stocks", but he is not as lucky as the "Hu Yongxi" who brought him into the game-
In the confessions of the father and son of the "stock god", they did not admit that there was an old leader. We only have some transfer records in our hands.
In addition, there are twenty or thirty borrowers who, like the old leaders, joined later and did not get their money back.
To be honest, I sorted out the transfer records of each borrower and checked them one by one. The most serious thing is the group of civil servants represented by the old leaders, and the small people who only invested in the later stage, they have lost a huge amount of property, and they are afraid that the stock god will be arrested and no one will pay back, so they do not cooperate with the evidence collection and investigation, and they do not take out IOUs if they have them.
Finding out the exact amount of the "stock god" fund-raising fraud case is not the only problem for me, a rookie prosecutor, and whether the father and son conspire is also a major difficulty.
The evidence we have is not enough to prove that my father knew about the stock speculation of the "stock god".
When the father was interrogated, he didn't know the stock speculation of the "stock god", saying that his son had always told him that stock trading was to make money.
Father really doesn't know the situation of the "stock god" stock speculation?
There are unreasonable things in the father's confession, such as the interest paid by the "stock god" is very high, but the father did not doubt it and did not prevent his son from giving such a high interest. We also found out that the father once transferred 2 million stocks to the "stock god", if he didn't know his son's stock speculation, why did he bet all his net worth?
I can also convince myself that before 2010, stock investment was not as hot and popular as it is now, and maybe my father really didn't understand stocks.
His father said that the "God of Stocks" instilled in him many times the idea that the more money you have, the more money you make, and let him help absorb the funds. The "stock god" also bought him a million-dollar luxury car and a new house, which was also easy to give his father the illusion of getting rich by stock speculation.
I checked the evidence over and over again, and it was indeed difficult to prove my father's subjective purpose of illegally appropriating the funds.
Maybe the "stock god" is excusing his father and letting his father say this on purpose?
Before returning for the first time to supplementary investigation, I interrogated the "stock god".
In the detention center, the "stock god" was taken out by the police in handcuffs and anklets, and his voice was particularly harsh.
He sat down slowly, looking at my colleague and me with confused eyes.
I looked at this legendary "stock god" with great interest, he was not good-looking, and even revealed an honest atmosphere, and it was not easy for people to associate him with the words "stock speculation" and "fraud". This temperament is not even reminiscent of tens of millions of fund-raising, Mercedes-Benz cars, Maserati.
He saw that we didn't speak, so he first redressed his grievances, "Prosecutor, I was wronged, I cooperated with these people at home to speculate in stocks, and then they sued me for fraud when I lost it." I hope you can find out the facts and clear my name. ”
I was petrified on the spot, having a premonition that his appearance was deceiving. No wonder the heads and faces of our small town were deceived by him.
Through the cold iron fence, I asked him, "Have you ever borrowed money from people in society?"
He replied to me with sincerity: "I didn't borrow money from people in the society, they all asked me to cooperate in stock trading." They say that IOUs are cooperative credentials. ”
I then asked, "What is the purpose of buying luxury watches?"
He said without hesitation, "Hu Yongxi, they said that there is a car that can support the scene." ”
He doesn't talk about his own responsibilities, but instead blames them all on others.
I changed the subject, "Does your father or family know about your stock trading?"
The "stock god" also answered quickly: "I don't know, they don't know how to speculate in stocks." ”
I warned him to confess his crimes truthfully and to do so at his own peril. He looked innocent again.
After the interrogation, I watched him being taken away by the police in the detention center, and the sound of anklets echoed in the corridor for a long time.
The "stock god" has a slight paranoia and will exaggerate his wealth and status, has he misled his family? Has his family persuaded him?
I may never know the truth of this question.
We verified the four stock trading accounts in the hands of the "stock god", all of which were registered with their own and family information. The four stock accounts lost a total of more than 40 million yuan. Some of them are lost by speculating in futures.
His level of stock trading may not even be considered a beginner, he just caught up with the good market when he started trading stocks, and he was a little lucky.
However, such a person has received more and more "help" from other people, so that more later investors like the old leader have been involved in his impossible successful stock speculation business. Until the last moment, I had to help him maintain the image of the "stock god".
I spent more than half a year investigating and verifying this case, and only some minor results were obtained.
Because we can't prove whether my father knows about the stock speculation of the "stock god", we can only demote my father. Although the final amount of funds raised is not accurate enough, it allows the "stock god" to reach the maximum penalty for the crime of fundraising fraud.
I put together the review report and filed a public prosecution.
After the first-instance trial, Tu Qianhua was sentenced to 11 years and six months in prison and fined 200,000 yuan for the crime of fund-raising fraud, while his father was sentenced to three years' imprisonment, suspended for four years, and fined 100,000 yuan for illegally absorbing public deposits.
In addition, the illegal gains of the two continue to be recovered and returned to the victims. Unfortunately, there are far from enough.
The old leader had to run a petty business in order to compensate his relatives, friends and banks.
Because of this incident, even his pension was enforced by the court.
Listening to old colleagues, the old leader is diligent and thrifty, even if he is the leader, he has never been involved in luxury. worked hard all his life, just because of a momentary mistake, he lost fame and fortune, and he was also in debt.
He later opened a cigarette shop to make ends meet and pay off his debts. Maybe he'll have to spend the rest of his life paying off his debts.
It's sad to think about it.
Chen Fayan defined the case as a "Ponzi scheme."
They create the myth of the "god of stocks" to attract more people to participate, and then make profits by squeezing the bottom investors.
In this story, Boss Hu, the largest investor, quit because he had no IOU and no transfer records.
Chen Fayan has no intention of evaluating whether the victims are innocent or not, which makes no sense. She wants to draw everyone's attention to something more important-
The reason why this scam succeeded is nothing more than taking advantage of a little greed in people's hearts, magnifying it infinitely, and then pulling people into the abyss.
