After a door-to-door service by the staff of the broadband company, Uncle Wang, who lives in Chaoyang District, Beijing, had an extra "black box" in his home, which was discovered by the police who visited him temporarily. This "black box" is not simple, it is a gateway device called VOIP, which can realize the function of converting overseas network signals into fixed-line signals in the city. It turned out that the staff of the broadband company was also impersonated, and it was the wire fraud gang that was doing it! At present, the suspect man has been criminally detained by the Chaoyang police in Beijing in accordance with the law.
Not long ago, the police of the Huajiadi Police Station of the Chaoyang Public Security Bureau of Beijing carried out a loving visit in the jurisdiction. When the policeman Guo Zhehao walked into the house of resident Uncle Wang, the old man happened to have something to ask for help. Uncle Wang said that a few days ago, a staff member of a broadband company went to his home to repair the broadband network, and after that, the landline phone at home could not be used. After careful inspection, a black "set-top box" style device at the terminal of Uncle Wang's telephone line aroused Guo Zhehao's vigilance, and this box was the "culprit" that interfered with the fixed-line signal.
Not only that, this black box Guo Zhehao had seen before when he was handling the case, and it was a voice gateway device called VOIP. This device can realize the conversion of overseas network signals into fixed-line signals in the city, and the power connection can automatically enter the continuous working state, and because it is installed in residents' homes, it is very hidden.
In the case of households where VOIP devices are installed, the network cable will be quietly used by wire fraud gangs to engage in fraudulent activities. After VOIP signal conversion, other citizens will be displayed as a landline number starting with 010 when they receive overseas fraudulent calls, so as to reduce the vigilance of fraud targets.
The police judged that the staff of the broadband company that provided door-to-door service must be fake, and he must be caught! With the help of the property personnel in the community, the police quickly obtained the physical characteristics of the suspect man. The next day, when the suspect reappeared in the jurisdiction and was about to come to the door for "network maintenance", he was caught red-handed by the police.
According to the suspect's confession, he saw a job posting on the Internet and applied for a job as an "equipment installer". The "boss" contacted him via online video and WeChat, distributed badges and tooling that pretended to be the staff of the broadband company, and mailed him VOIP equipment by courier. It is reported that other members of the gang will pretend to be the customer service of a broadband company to make random phone calls and make appointments for door-to-door services on the grounds of increasing bandwidth for free or carrying out signal maintenance. After the appointment was successful, the suspect was contacted, informed of the installation location, and instructed him to come to the door for installation.
In a month, the suspect installed dozens of VOIP equipment in accordance with the instructions of the "boss", making a profit of nearly 10,000 yuan, and most of the victims were elderly. Now the person has been criminally detained by the Chaoyang police in accordance with the law, and the case is under further work.
