Do you think this scene is to visit relatives and friends to receive red envelopes during the New Year's Greeting? This is actually a fraudulent means for unscrupulous scammers to pick up the elderly living alone in fishing villages.
No, on September 30, a 94-year-old man in Dinghaicen Harbor unfortunately encountered such a fraud case.
Let's first review the facts of the case, on September 30, the Dinghai Cen Port Police Station received a report from Li Mou that his 90-year-old mother Pan Mou was defrauded of 500 yuan by a strange man posing as a Relative in Shanghai at his home in Cen Gang Street, Dinghai District.
"It's so disgusting, even the money of such an old man is cheated, the old lady usually saves money, and this time being cheated out of 500 yuan must be heartbroken to death!" Hu Zhehao, a police officer at the Cen Gang police station who received the police, said to himself that he must solve the case as soon as possible.
However, when Hu Zhehao asked the old man about the incident, the old man was old and could not explain the specific situation, which increased the difficulty of cracking the case. But the careful police judged from the only clue that this suspect was likely to be a habitual offender.
After returning to the office, Hu Zhehao and his colleagues retrieved the surveillance video of all the intersections around the scene that day, and adjusted the fraud cases similar to the means of committing crimes before. After a few days of careful investigation, "come and see, there is a man in a suit, the shape is very suspicious", the police found a suspicious man in the monitoring, everyone analyzed, in a remote island where the elderly live mainly, a middle-aged man with a leather bag and formal clothes is very strange, and then take a closer look, the man is not the illegal suspect Zhang Mou, who has been arrested before.
The target was locked, and on October 22, the police arrested the illegal suspect Zhang Mou. After review, Zhang Mou confessed that he was strapped for money at that time, and he wanted to repeat the old trick to cheat some money, and on the same day he came to Cen Gang to see an old man living alone, so he pretended to be her Shanghai relative, and after winning trust, he cheated the old man of 500 yuan.
On October 22, the police officer Hu Zhehao sent 500 yuan to the hands of the old man, and the old man was very touched and choked up and said "Thank you!"
At present, the offender Zhang Mou has been punished by the Dinghai police for 14 days of administrative detention in accordance with the law for fraud.
