Zhongxin Finance, May 7 (Reporter Wu Tao) Recently, a new type of fraud has surfaced.
"Become a fitting member and receive all kinds of express delivery for free", "Free perfume and other cosmetics samples", "Free time and monthly income of tens of thousands"... On some social platforms and short video platforms, there is a part-time trend of "fitting staff" Scrape, is there really such a good thing in the world?
Very tempting, "fitting man" makes money by taking pictures?
After "hard work", the reporter passed the preliminary assessment and contacted Momo (pseudonym), a staff member who was recruiting "fitting staff" on a short video platform. According to reports, part-time "fitting staff" is very simple, just take pictures to make money, list There are three main types: commission bills, sending orders, and sending orders.
There are three ways to receive orders from the recruiting "fitting staff" staff.
The commission order requires the part-time staff to first place an order from the designated e-commerce platform, take a picture of the product after receiving the goods, and then send it back to the merchant, and the merchant will settle the commission and advance funds for the part-time staff.
According to reports, the commission is generally between 40 yuan to 200 yuan.
"There is no limit to the number of orders made every day, and each order earns at least 40 yuan." Momo said.
Sending the order requires the part-time staff to place the order and then give a picture to the praise after receiving the goods, and the merchant will return the fee paid by the part-time staff to place the order.
There is no commission in this mode, but the follow-up express delivery does not need to be sent back to the merchant, and the goods are directly sent to the part-time staff.
There is no need for part-time staff to pay for the goods in advance to send the auction order. The merchants will directly mail the goods, and after the pictures are well received, the goods will be sent back to the merchants.
The reporter noticed that all three models require part-time staff to advance funds. Even if the order is sent, the postage must be paid in advance when mailing goods back and forth.
Multiple routines, interlocking
It is worth mentioning that, before officially becoming a "fitting person", an entry fee must be paid.
According to Momo, the entry fee is 350 yuan. "This fee is normal. If the entry fee is more than 350 yuan to 400 yuan, it must be a liar, but there is no white pie in the sky. You still have to pay the membership fee to enter the platform."

The reporter asked: Who should I pay the membership fee?
Do you have a receipt, do you need to sign a contract?
Momo said it was handed over to "Platform Finance".
Momo said, "You transfer me first, and then I transfer the finances. Online is a platform, offline is a company, and it is handed over to offline managers."
Some netizens said on Zhihu that they had joined the "fitting man" platform, "I paid a membership fee of 400 yuan and asked me to pull people's heads. Pull one person and give me 230 yuan."
In addition, recently, there were media reports that five women were deceived of 580,000 yuan by working part-time as "fitting staff".
You thought this was over?
Never thought this was the beginning.
The reporter noticed that many people who claimed to be deceived said, "During the part-time job of 'fittings', they would continue to download various apps, upload photos of the front and back of their ID cards, collect personal information, and even open online loans in a confused way. "

There are also fraudulent words. "It is said that the commission will be settled after making enough commissions of 200 yuan, but in the end, it will be counted after making enough 200 orders. After brushing a few orders, there is a dilemma."
How to prevent? Be wary of showing off "income" accounts
On May 6, a short video platform issued a safety reminder to be alert to the fraud of "fitting staff", saying that part-time jobs need to be cautious, and any transaction involving brushing is a fraud.
The criminals will first provide the victims with some small tasks, and will quickly settle the wages to win the trust of the victims, but the subsequent tasks will involve larger and larger amounts of money, making the victims deeper and deeper.

In addition, criminals will also show the illusion of easy work and high income of "fittings" on social platforms, attracting victims to take the initiative to ask about part-time jobs.
For example, when the reporter looked at Momo's circle of friends, it was basically all screenshots of "entry into the account", or "received by express delivery", and members exchanged information about receiving various express delivery for free.
Recently, with the exposure of the "fitting man" scam, currently searching for "fitting man" on multiple platforms, there will be a warm reminder that the platform has been launched: Be cautious when applying for online jobs, and do not believe in part-time jobs and side jobs passed on by strangers. information, do not fall into the scam trap.
