See the title, yes, Apple has been disgusting fraud again, things have been roughly told here, the fraud gang is still using apple care+ service vulnerabilities to exchange fake machines for real machines, please continue to look down.
Apple care+ service I believe everyone knows! When buying an Apple device, it will give you the choice of whether to purchase AC+ service, once purchased, you can enjoy a warranty extension, and the phone damage can pay a certain fee to directly replace the new machine.
Among them, some wool parties and some fraud gangs have looked at a piece of apple care+ service, and if there is damage, they can pay a certain fee to directly replace the new machine.
You read it right, it is a direct replacement of the new machine, no need to take the detection step, and these fraud teams will buy a batch of modified IMEI devices that cannot be turned on and made into the equipment into water, so that the staff will think that the water is ingressed and cannot be turned on, so that you can directly replace the new machine after paying the point amount.
Subsequently, because of the loss of hundreds of millions of dollars due to this situation, Apple could not bear to cancel the direct replacement directly for the domestic cancellation, and joined the need to return to the factory after testing and confirmation, and then to the notification whether the conditions are met to replace the new machine.
As a result, some wool parties and some fraud gangs can no longer use apple care+ services to defraud in the country, and this matter is not over, recently Swiss customs officers intercepted two packages containing 50 iPhones in Basel, and then found that they were fakes, including the huge scam behind this matter.
According to foreign media reports, more than a thousand "fake" fake iPhones were used to carry out AppleCare fraud between Hong Kong and Switzerland.
That's right! China can't do it, go abroad to commit fraud, and change the real machine.
A mother and son are charged with fraud, the son faces four years in prison, and has been expelled from Switzerland, where he has lived for nearly 20 years, and the Swiss website SRF reports that the two will appear in court this day and tomorrow.
The operation is the same as before, take some fake iPhones, modify the IMEI code that can enjoy AC+ services, and then fake the water ingress to cause the machine to not be turned on, and then go to the Swiss Apple store to pay Swiss francs to replace the new machine.
The crooks only have to pay 99 Swiss francs (about 749 yuan) to replace a new machine.
His son used more than 1,000 fake iPhones to defraud, and his mother used more than 100 more iPhones.
The point is that these two people do not seem to be the main culprits, they are just intermediaries, responsible for taking the fake machine to others to exchange at the Apple Store, and after the redemption is successful, they will then send the real mobile phone back. For every iPhone exchanged, they only get a "commission" of CHF 10.
They also claimed to be innocent, and also mentioned that China did not have access to this service, but only took it for replacement, and then the Swiss customs officer intercepted two packages containing 50 iPhones in Basel, both of which were fake, which has constituted fraud.
