Targeted the landlord
——Caught up with the routine of "renting" and "swiping orders".

"Rent + mail gold" scam

2. Then take the initiative to contact the landlord and say that you want to rent a house
3. They will first call a deposit of 2,000 yuan to show their sincerity
4. Then procrastinate for time
5. When the landlord finds the scammer to inquire about the situation without knowing the situation, he will excuse himself on the grounds that he is busy
6. In the process, gold investment and financial management are intentionally or unintentionally mentioned
7. Finally, under his guidance, go to the mall to buy gold and mail it to the designated place for "investment"
A few days ago

Buy gold without even asking about the price of gold

The second time I offered to buy 500 grams
Luckily, the teller noticed something was wrong
The police were promptly called
Finally stopped
Gold bars worth more than 100,000 yuan were successfully recovered
Recovered gold bars
Fake investment platforms
There are similarities
"Swiping + mailing gold" scam
Let's take a look at it with the editor
The trick of a liar
"Swiping + mailing gold" scam
1. Scammers cast a wide net and carried a small "rebate" card in the express delivery
2. Wait for someone to receive the courier, scan the card QR code out of curiosity, and install an App
3. Guide them to the group chat, and the "customer service" will guide them
4. Complete the task of swiping orders and give "cashback"
5. Scammers will give some small gifts to stick to the user and continue to invest
6. When the user invests a certain amount of money and wants to withdraw again, an error will be displayed
7. The scammer will ask for the gold to be purchased and mailed to the designated location before it can be withdrawn
The lady below
fell into the trap of scammers
She loves online shopping
Once
She found a small "rebate" card in the delivery box
Out of curiosity
I scanned the code and installed an App
After joining a group chat
Under the guidance of "customer service".
recharged 990 yuan and 5,000 yuan respectively
Complete the task of swiping and get "cashback"
And that's not all
I also received a number of small gifts
When she sees her balance
When it has accumulated to $7,800
I just want to withdraw money
Ask "Customer Service" after failure
The other party said that it needed to buy gold
and mail it to the designated location
There is still 880,000 yuan in the party's bank card
Luckily, when she was ready to go out shopping
The anti-fraud dissuasion call from the police station came
otherwise
There is a high probability that this money will not be saved
The party scanned the unfamiliar QR code, and then was pitted
Scammers trick them into buying gold and mailing it
Because gold has good value retention,
Easy to monetize and other features
At the same time, scammers use it instead of "online banking transfer"
Able to circumvent the "emergency stop payment" of the public security organs
therefore
Wire fraud gangs will be all kinds of traditional scams
Repack
Then combine it with the "mail gold" routine
Elaborate scams
So
Anything that asks you to buy a large amount of gold and mail it
Please check carefully
Some netizens said
"After the release of the rental news went out
There have been two waves of liars who have come to deceive me"
And remind everyone
"Fraud is hard to prevent, don't be greedy"
I don't know everyone through these two fraud cases
Did you find common ground?
Scammers will cast a wide net first
Once you're in
I'll give you a little bit of a profit first
Makes you feel like you're taking advantage
Induce you to invest more
Finally get a big handful of you
So
Don't be greedy
There is no free pie in the sky to fall and smash you
