Visual China.
June 22 is the birthday of Aunt Zheng's father, on the same day, Aunt Zheng went to the hospital to accompany her sick and hospitalized father and congratulated him on a happy birthday. At about 10 o'clock, Aunt Zheng received a strange call, the other party claimed to be a police officer of a public security organ in a certain place, saying that they found that Aunt Zheng was related to a money laundering case in the investigation and handling of the case, and asked Aunt Zheng to cooperate with the investigation. Aunt Zheng has never done anything illegal or criminal, and she is not afraid of the shadow oblique, and hung up the other party's phone on the spot. After a few minutes, another strange phone number called, and the other party sharply criticized Aunt Zheng, saying that her behavior was extremely impolite and asking Aunt Zheng to answer it carefully. Although Aunt Zheng was a little reluctant, she still listened carefully according to the requirements of the other party, and the result was that this hearing was bad.
The other party first accurately stated Aunt Zheng's personal identity information, as well as her bank card handled by a bank in Yuanjiang City, and then mentioned that after a staff member of the bank was transferred to Shanghai, he was seized by the local public security organs for suspected job-related crimes, and it was very likely that he would be sentenced to 20 years in prison and fined a huge amount. The other party warned Aunt Zheng that if she did not cooperate with the investigation, she might be punished with a criminal punishment that was not light. Seeing that Aunt Zheng would be suspicious of the letter, the other party proposed to let her add the "police" WeChat, and sent an "arrest order" through WeChat. Just when Aunt Zheng looked at her own identity information on the "arrest warrant" and was stunned, the other party proposed to hold a "video conference", Aunt Zheng connected a line, a man in a police uniform was sitting precariously, "police rank, siren" and a series of identity certificates were readily available, Aunt Zheng suddenly panicked, and believed the other party in her heart.
After a few minutes of video connection, Aunt Zheng switched to a voice call according to the requirements of the other party. The two sides have been keeping on the phone, unconsciously it is noon, the birthday of the seventy-year-old father, Aunt Zheng's mother has laid out a table of meals early, Aunt Zheng wants to finish eating and then communicate, the other party screamed to stop her, saying that things are so serious that you can still eat? Hurry up and find a quiet place to get things done. Aunt Zheng had to leave from the excuse and return home alone to continue answering voice calls. When someone called, Aunt Zheng set up the phone according to the other party's prompts, so that relatives and friends could not contact her temporarily.
At this point, after nearly three hours of continuous phone calls, the scammers have completed a series of operations such as "crime plus, identity verification, and shielding relatives and friends", and Aunt Zheng has completely lost her judgment and has become the dish of the scammers, and the final "harvesting time" is coming. Just as the scammers proposed to transfer their property to a "safe account" along the lines of fraud, the old mother, who had not seen her daughter for lunch for a long time, found Aunt Zheng's house.
"This is a scam call, you quickly hang up!" The old mother couldn't help but say, forcibly hung up the phone of Aunt Zheng, Aunt Zheng was afraid and uneasy, afraid of getting into big trouble, the old mother explained while comforting.
Shortly thereafter, the Anti-Fraud Center of the Ziyang Public Security Bureau called and told Aunt Zheng that she may have encountered telecommunications fraud, and that she must not trust the other party, do not send money to transfer money, and if in doubt, you can go directly to the local police station to understand the situation. Under the repeated persuasion and explanation of the old mother and the police, Aunt Zheng finally woke up and successfully escaped a "robbery".
