  "There are more than 1,600 people in the group, and everyone is rushing for the subscription order." When she grabbed the subscription order of 1,000 yuan for the second time, Wang Lin (pseudonym) did not hesitate to transfer the 1,000 yuan to the bank account designated by the other party, waiting for the rebate to be withdrawn. .

But then she was informed by the other party that the subscription order of 1,000 yuan had been robbed, and she could only make up the difference to "make a subscription order of 3,000 yuan".

With the attitude of "transfer some money and try again", Wang Lin remitted another 2,000 yuan, but was again told by the other party that the 3,000-yuan subscription order had also been robbed, and she could only continue to make up the difference and make a 5,000-yuan subscription order.

  Only then did Wang Lin realize that she had been deceived!

  Recently, a number of netizens who have similar experiences with Wang Lin reported that they were deceived by applying for a part-time fitting on the short video platform. Group, and then began to brush orders to do tasks, and in the last step, all the savings were deceived.

Unemployed at home, Wang Lin filled in her contact information in the advertisement link of the short video platform with the mentality of giving it a try.

  The next day, Wang Lin received a return call and added the other party's WeChat.

Subsequently, Wang Lin was recommended to the company's customer service, and under the instructions of the customer service, she downloaded an app called "Duo Niu", and then Wang Lin, who successfully registered, was assigned a special receptionist.

  On the Duoniu App, Wang Lin was pulled into two large groups, one is the logistics group, which is specially used to update the logistics information of the goods sent for auction; the other is the task group. The receptionist said that the group members can wait for the logistics "Do some small tasks and earn some pocket money" in the task group.

  Under the encouragement of the receptionist, Wang Lin began to try to take small orders in the task group. At first, to pay attention to Pinduoduo or Taobao stores, she could get a rebate of 2.8 yuan per order, and Alipay arrived in seconds.

The receptionist said that newcomers who have just joined the group need to make a subscription form for newcomers. After completing the subscription form three times, they can become regular employees, and the amount of rebates for paying attention to the store will also be doubled.

The so-called subscription order is to cooperate with the merchant to generate traffic, and to transfer a certain amount in advance to get a rebate.

To receive the subscription order, the group members need to reply the amount of the order they want to make immediately after the task is released, and send a screenshot to the personal receptionist, and then transfer the money according to the bank account provided by the receptionist, and the receptionist will help to recharge the transfer amount. After 5 to 10 minutes, the rebate will be credited to your own "Peak Business" account, and individuals can bind a bank card to withdraw cash.

  After trying 100 yuan once, twice 500 yuan, and once 1,000 yuan to withdraw cash, Wang Lin began to "grab orders" on her mobile phone every day.

The check-in time is from 9:30 to 10:00 every day. On the first day, you can get a red envelope of 5 yuan, 15 yuan for three consecutive days, 45 yuan for seven consecutive days, and so on, you can get 888 yuan if you log in for one month in a row.

After the sign-in is over, there will be about 15 follow-up orders in the group every day, which will be distributed every half an hour, with three subscription orders interspersed in the middle. "The group is crazy."

  Wang Lin recalled that some friends in the group posted screenshots of their own withdrawal of 30,000 large orders, and some group friends followed suit and said that they had been doing this for a long time, and there was no problem, but when some group friends questioned the peak When verifying the authenticity of the business website, the managers claimed that "Top Business and the National Anti-Fraud App have cooperation and can use it with confidence".

In addition, in order to appease the group members, in the logistics group, the management staff will update the logistics information of the goods sent for shooting every day. Some netizens in the group also said that they have received the clothes sent for shooting, and even took pictures to show them to the group.

  However, what she didn't know was that the people in the group who showed off their big money were all trustees.

  Until she finally quit the group, Wang Lin did not receive any clothes sent.

However, Wang Lin's latest transfer of 3,000 yuan still cannot be withdrawn. The personal receptionist, subscription order tutor, and the WeChat customer service added earlier did not reply to messages after Wang Lin clearly refused to add money to make large orders.

  At present, Wang Lin reported the case to the police for 5 days, and the case has not yet made further progress.

  So, why are short video platforms targeted by scammers, and what new routines do these scams have?

  For frauds on short video platforms, the Gansu Provincial Anti-Fraud Center issued an important warning on May 6.

  Does the short video platform fulfill its audit obligations?

Who is responsible for the victim?

  After being defrauded for a large amount of savings, some victims believe that the short video platform is not rigorously reviewed and has not fulfilled its obligations to supervise advertisements. unsuccessful.

  So, in this fitting-person fraud case, does the platform need to be responsible to the victim?

After the fraud occurs, what obligations should the platform fulfill?

  In this regard, Meng Zedong, a lawyer from Beijing Yingke Law Firm, believes that short video platforms, as Internet information service providers, usually benefit from the promotion of business advertisements. In cases of employee fraud, it is necessary to bear certain platform responsibilities.

Meng Zedong said that the platform should implement a comprehensive review obligation in the process of helping merchants to promote advertisements, including pre-event, in-process and post-event review: before the event, the platform should conduct a more substantial review of the merchant's qualifications and the potential risks of advertising by the merchant; During the event, the platform should review the actual content of the merchant's advertisement and take certain measures against the risks that occur during the dissemination process; after the event, when the platform receives a user complaint, it should promptly disconnect the advertisement link to strengthen post-event supervision.

  Meng Zedong said that although the platform should bear certain responsibilities, the size of the responsibility needs to be determined by the court according to the specific circumstances.

  Zhou Liang, a lawyer from Beijing Yingke Law Firm, believes that the short video platform only needs to perform ordinary duties of care when reviewing advertisements, that is, if there is no sign of fraud in the content of the fitting member's advertisement, there is no problem with the platform pushing the advertisement normally, and there is no need for The merchant is responsible for subsequent fraudulent acts.

If the platform finds that the content of the advertisement has a certain tendency to defraud, it is obliged to remind the user and strictly review the advertisement; if the correlation between the advertisement and fraud is not high, the public does not need to criticize the platform for strictly reviewing the advertisement.

  Zhou Liang pointed out that although the platform does not have to bear such responsibilities, it should have the responsibility of a large platform. For example, after a fraud incident occurs, it can use the advantages of the platform to aggregate victim information, actively guide victims to protect their rights in accordance with the law, and jointly report the case to the public security organs; in addition, In response to this fraud incident, the platform can also reflect on the introduction of relevant measures to avoid similar incidents from happening again.

  What should consumers pay attention to in response to such telecom fraud?

  Meng Zedong told the Shell Finance reporter that he had encountered a victim of telecommunications fraud and was defrauded of more than 400,000 yuan. After 20 years of filing the case, he was notified by the police that the defrauded money was recovered.

Meng Zedong analyzed that such telecom fraud gangs are mostly distributed overseas and are well-organized. A detailed fraud plan will be formulated before the fraud, and the flow of the fraud amount is complicated, making criminal investigation difficult.

In this regard, Meng Zedong reminded the public that it is difficult to recover money from telecommunication fraud. Everyone should have a reasonable understanding of money, and do not covet petty cheap.

  Zhou Liang also reminded consumers that they should think twice before encountering a pie in the sky, and be more cautious once an abnormality occurs.
