Uncover the "ghost" gang in the communications industry: the illegal card selling industry chain is exposed
In the bustling communication market, there is an unknown black industry chain hidden - illegal card sales and card sales. Recently, the police in Jiashi County, Xinjiang, successfully smashed a "ghost" gang hidden in a local telecommunications operator, arrested three criminal suspects, and uncovered this shocking criminal incident.
A mysterious "card merchant" has surfaced
In late April this year, the Anti-Fraud Center of the Jiashi County Public Security Bureau received a clue from a superior, saying that some mobile phone cards handled by a communication operator in the county were suspected of telecommunications network fraud. This clue has attracted great attention from the police, and after the traceability investigation of the mobile phone cards involved in the case, the police found that these mobile phone cards were actually obtained and sold through illegal means. After an in-depth investigation, the police locked up a communication operator's agent, and immediately set up a special team to dig deep into the clues of the case.
The "inner ghost" appeared to reveal the truth about illegal card application
As the investigation deepened, the police gradually uncovered the truth of this criminal incident. It turned out that in order to seek personal gain, A used his identity as an agent of a communication operator to solicit a large number of local people to apply for mobile phone cards and complete real-name authentication in the form of "setting up stalls" and using "cards to send oil, rice, noodles and other gifts" as bait. However, when opening a phone card for the customer's real-name authentication, A Mou privately opened a mobile phone card "supplementary card" and intercepted it without the customer's knowledge. These intercepted mobile phone cards have become a tool for A's illegal profit-making.
According to the police, A Mou has accumulated and obtained nearly 50 real-name mobile phone cards through this illegal means. Subsequently, he sold these mobile phone cards at a price of 200 yuan each to Sun, a local online "card merchant". Sun resold the mobile phone card to buyers in other provinces and cities at a high price, forming a complete industrial chain of illegal card sales and sales.
Gangs have expanded and criminal methods have escalated
With the increase in the demand for mobile phone cards by online fraud gangs, it is no longer enough for a certain person to apply for a card. So, Sun pulled his fellow villager Wang and applied for another local communication company channel together. In order to quickly obtain a mobile phone card, Wang even did not hesitate to forge his identity and reason to apply for card opening permission from the authorized store of the communication company. Because Wang did not meet the application conditions, the person in charge of the authorized store privately handed over his hand-held card-handling equipment and verification authority to Wang for the sake of card performance.
As a result, a criminal gang composed of "card merchant" Sun, industry "ghosts" A and Wang illegally handled and sold cards in Jiashi County. In order to improve the card-handling business, the branches and authorized stores of individual communication operators have repeatedly provided these "ghosts" with unopened mobile phone empty cards, advertising slogans, promotional vests, etc., and at the same time lowered the card review standards, so that the relevant industry management regulations of communication companies are mere formalities.
Thunderbolt strikes, and the police dismantle criminal gangs
After having sufficient evidence, the Jiashi County police made a decisive attack and successfully smashed this criminal gang. At the scene of the arrest, the police intercepted and recovered 10 mobile phone card chips, and seized 2 sets of handheld mobile card handling equipment, 17 sets of unopened mobile phone cards, 5 mobile phones and other items involved in the case on the spot. After interrogation, Sun, A, and Wang all confessed to their crimes.
Popularize the law and rectify it to prevent the recurrence of "inner ghosts".
In order to prevent and put an end to the "ghosts" in such industries who know the law and break the law, the Jiashi County Public Security Bureau organized local telecommunications operators to hold a forum on popularizing the law as soon as the case was discovered. At the meeting, the police reported on the case and emphasized the responsibilities of communication operators in card handling and internal supervision. At the same time, the police also promoted the internal investigation and rectification of various units, and organized the study of relevant laws and regulations on the crime of aiding trust, duty crimes, etc., so as to improve the legal awareness and risk prevention ability of communication operators and their employees.
Conclusion: It is everyone's responsibility to protect the security of communications
The arrest of this "ghost" gang in the telecommunications industry has not only recovered economic losses for the victims, but also demonstrated the determination and ability of the public security organs to crack down on telecommunications network fraud. However, we should also be aware that guarding the security of communications is not only the responsibility of the public security organs, but also the unshirkable obligation of each of us. Only when each of us is vigilant and vigilant can we jointly build a safe and healthy communication environment.
