"Will you recognize counterfeit money?" "What should I do if I accidentally receive counterfeit money?" "How to deal with illegal fundraising?" ...... On May 15 this year, the 15th National Public Security Organs Crackdown and Prevention of Economic Crime Publicity Day, the Henan Provincial Public Security Department and the Zhengzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau launched an interesting economic crime knowledge publicity activity.
A few "tricks" make counterfeit money nowhere to hide
"Hello, can you help me see if my 100 yuan is real or fake?" Xiao Dong, a citizen of Zhengzhou, rushed to the Henan Art Center Square in Zhengdong New District early in the morning and made a special trip to find the answer with a 100 yuan note he received when selling vegetables. A staff member of the Postal Savings Bank of China picked up the banknote, touched it with his hand, flipped it back and forth a few times, and quickly gave the answer: this 100 yuan is real. Can you identify a real or fake currency in a few actions? With curiosity, the reporter also joined the team of truth-seeking.
The staff of the Postal Savings Bank of China told reporters that you can easily grasp the authenticity of banknotes in three simple steps: "One turn: turn the banknote to see two places." The color of the '100' changes from gold to green, and the color of the security thread changes from red to green. Second touch: touch many places with bumps. Touching the front and back of the ticket in many places, there is an obvious sense of concave and convex. 3. Light transmission: two points are seen through light observation. Whether the watermark is clear and whether the printing pattern is accurately coincided. ”
At the event site, the reporter learned that the new version of the fifth set of renminbi has the characteristics of being safer, brighter and easier to identify, and if counterfeit money is detected when citizens and friends store banknotes, banks and other financial institutions will collect counterfeit money, and issue a certificate to me on the spot to prove the source of the counterfeit money. "It is illegal to manufacture, buy, sell, transport, use, and possess counterfeit money, and if you receive counterfeit money, please hand it over to the bank or public security organ to prevent more people from being deceived."
Heavy punch: recover more than 2.8 billion yuan in losses!
Economic crimes endanger the steady development of the socio-economic and business environment. The reporter learned at the scene that the public security organs of the province have severely cracked down on crimes in the field of commerce and trade, focusing on rectifying crimes in the field of tobacco, professional false litigation and new types of contract fraud crimes carried out in the name of "rural revitalization" and "state-owned enterprises", and successfully cracked a number of key cases, and recovered and returned a large number of funds and assets involved in the case in accordance with the law. Since 2023, the province has cracked a total of 576 cases of endangered tax investigation and management, arrested 1,113 suspects, and recovered more than 2.8 billion yuan in tax losses, effectively safeguarding the good market economic order and the legitimate rights and interests of enterprises, and effectively curbing the spread of economic crimes.
Fake coins, forged official seals, fake cigarettes, fake liquor...... At the stolen goods display counter, Miao Yufen, a police officer from the Economic Investigation Brigade of the Jinshui Bureau of the Zhengzhou Public Security Bureau, picked up a few fake coins and told the story behind them: "These fake coins were discovered by the staff when a criminal gang deposited money in the bank. ”
"The display of stolen goods can better allow the general public to get close and real contact with these seemingly distant but actually very close economic crimes." Li Feng, a police officer of the Economic Investigation Brigade of the Jinshui Bureau of the Zhengzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau, called on the general public to continuously enhance the awareness of prevention that "pies will not fall from the sky and that getting rich overnight is a trap", keep in mind the truth of "rational investment and prudence, and high-interest interest and temptation are all cakes", resolutely resist illegal fund-raising and pyramid schemes, and guard their "money bags".
"At present, the illegal absorption of public deposits, the organization and leadership of pyramid schemes, and credit card fraud are relatively high in society, and in recent years, with the rise of network technology and Internet finance, economic crimes have also put on a high-tech coat, making it more difficult for people to distinguish." Xu Jiaxing, a practicing lawyer at Henan Lanqing Law Firm, reminds the general public and friends not to blindly believe in "insider trading" and "steady profit and no loss", if you encounter this situation, please keep the relevant documents and report to the police immediately.
Rest assured! These services are optimized
"Thanks to the police from the Huiji District Economic Investigation Brigade of the Zhengzhou Municipal Public Security Bureau, if it weren't for them, my car wouldn't have been recovered." The reporter noticed at the event that Mr. Zhang, a citizen of Zhengzhou, made a special trip with a pennant to express his gratitude to the police who helped recover their losses.
In order to enhance the ability and level of public security organs to serve economic and social development and the credibility of law enforcement, the Henan Provincial Public Security Department has successively formulated and issued a series of rules and regulations such as several opinions on protecting the lawful rights and interests of market entities in accordance with the law and further standardizing the handling of cases, providing legal compliance and specific guidance for grassroots people's police in law enforcement and case handling.
The reporter learned at the event site that in 2023, the province's public security organs will visit enterprises more than 5,000 times and solve more than 1,000 practical problems for enterprises.
The pace of service optimization has never stopped, and the Nanyang public security organs have held a symposium for soliciting opinions from market entities to solve 94 difficulties and problems related to enterprises with the goal of "zero distance" for service enterprises, "zero obstacles" for work efficiency, and "zero interference" for production and operation. Luoyang City has also launched 12 work measures to ensure the development of enterprises, and built the province's first online "police enterprise service station". Combined with the "Ten Work Guidelines for the Economic Investigation Department to Facilitate the People and Benefit Enterprises" launched by the Economic Investigation Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security and the "Optimizing the Business Environment and Ten Thousand People Helping Ten Thousand Enterprises" activity formulated by the provincial government, the Henan public security organs have actively carried out a series of measures to optimize the business environment according to the local reality, and effectively maintained the economic order, financial security and social stability of the province.
