"Hello, Mr. Zhang, I am the customer service of the XX financial service platform. Our service business is about to be taken off the shelves. Please cancel your account as soon as possible." In April this year, Mr. Zhang, a programmer who lives in Shanghai, received a call from a well-known financial The customer service phone number of the service platform.
In the end, under the deception of the other party, the deposit of 1.25 million yuan in Mr. Zhang's account was transferred away.
This is a typical telecom network fraud case recently announced by the Shanghai Anti-Fraud Center.
Recently, a reporter from the "Rules of Law Daily" learned from the Shanghai Anti-Fraud Center that during the epidemic, fraudulent cases of telecommunication network fraud such as fake shopping, customer service of fake charging merchants, and rebates on bills continued to occur. "Fake financial customer service" and "receive wage subsidies" "Game account equipment" has become a new routine for criminals to wait for opportunities to commit crimes.
In response to the new trend of telecommunications network fraud during the epidemic, the Shanghai Anti-Fraud Center has comprehensively implemented measures from multiple dimensions such as interception, early warning, and dissuasion, so as to achieve rapid response, accurate anti-fraud, and the number of telecommunications network fraud cases in the city. . The amount involved in the case achieved a "double drop" year-on-year, which effectively safeguarded the property safety of the citizens.
Precisely prevent and block fraud
In the dynamic early warning data model of the Shanghai Anti-Fraud Center, the reporter noticed that many keywords have been listed as high-frequency fraudulent words. Once identified, the system will promptly send reminder SMS warnings to the public.
According to the police of the Anti-Fraud Center, during the epidemic, the movement of citizens decreased, but the number of various online fraud cases did not decrease significantly. Among them, cases of "game account recharge, equipment transaction" continued to occur frequently.
Especially since May, the Shanghai Anti-Fraud Center has successively received dozens of reports of "Trojan fishing" cases on the grounds of receiving "home and isolation subsidies".
In game account recharge scams, criminals use the guise of "high-priced acquisition, low-cost recharge, and free collection" to attract online game enthusiasts.
The results can be imagined. Some private transactions lost game account equipment, some scanned and clicked on fake QR codes and URL links, and were defrauded of years of bank savings. "Margin" and "Unfreeze Gold".
In the case of "Trojan phishing" for the purpose of receiving "home isolation subsidies", the police found that the criminals had invaded the mail system of some enterprises and companies, posing as the company's financial or administrative departments to send mass emails to employees, falsely claiming that " You can apply for a work subsidy", induce the victim to scan the code to log in to the "phishing website", and after obtaining the victim's bank card number, password, verification code and other information, implement the fraudulent behavior.
In this regard, the Shanghai Anti-Fraud Center combines the daily rolling police information, focuses on high-frequency fraud-related keywords, dynamically builds an early warning data model to carry out front-end filtering, and does its best to isolate the "tentacles" of fraud outside the city, with an average daily warning. A total of 125,000 potential victims of various types were found, and SMS alerts were sent simultaneously.
For high-risk potential victims, the anti-fraud center effectively combined intelligent voice and manual phone calls to discourage people, with an average of over 35,000 calls per day, with a peak of 55,000 calls per day.
Quickly detect and deal with the damage
Publish "purchasing daily necessities" in the WeChat group, and when the purchasing money is received, the group chat will be disbanded to play "disconnected".
At the beginning of May, the Shanghai Anti-Fraud Center led the Putuo Branch to conduct research and judgment on such a case of committing fraud on the grounds of purchasing daily necessities, and successively linked 3 cases in the Changning and Baoshan areas, and quickly locked the activity in a city in Zhejiang Province. The criminal suspect Wang Mou.
With the cooperation of the police in Shanghai and Zhejiang, Wang was successfully arrested, and the work of returning stolen goods, refunding the stolen goods and investigating the case is still in progress.
It is understood that in response to the city's epidemic-related fraud, the Shanghai public security organs have always adhered to "rapid response, rapid research and judgment, and rapid investigation and punishment", with a "zero tolerance" attitude to fight early, small and exposed, and resolutely curb such illegal crimes. Activity breeds and spreads.
Especially in the name of "community group purchases, purchasing errands" and other fraudulent police cases, the Criminal Investigation Team of the Municipal Public Security Bureau took the lead in setting up a special class for combating work, actively intervening, focusing on research and judgment, and focusing on key problems, and guided the city's public security organs to crack down and deal with a group of suspects involved in a timely manner. , and return the defrauded money to the victim.
At the same time, the Shanghai Anti-Fraud Center continued to optimize the mechanism of "Report Quickly" to recover the victims' losses to the greatest extent possible.
Not long ago, the anti-fraud center received a fraud case of posing as an acquaintance. After receiving the report, the center immediately cooperated with the local Xuhui police to conduct two-level inquiries, and it took 70 minutes successively to inquire about 19 bank accounts. 10,000 yuan, and recovered nearly 1 million yuan of defrauded funds for the victim.
The data shows that after receiving the report of the deceived people, the anti-fraud center insisted on urgently stopping the payment of the funds in the fraudulent bank accounts as soon as possible, and tried every means to realize the “earlier interception and less loss” of the defrauded funds, and the cumulative stop payment since March. More than 35 million yuan of frozen funds.
Strengthen publicity source management
Recently, Mr. Chen, who lives in Jinshan District, Shanghai, received an email called "Declaration of Epidemic Subsidy". The email contained a QR code, prompting self-service by scanning the code.
Thinking of the anti-fraud publicity of the community police during the nucleic acid test in the morning, Mr. Zhang realized that this was a fraud, and promptly reported the relevant situation to the community police.
"Don't scan the code, this is a typical epidemic-related fraud!" Shen Xinsong, a policeman from the Fengjing police station in the territory, learned about the situation and immediately went to the door to carry out all-round prevention publicity for Mr. Zhang, and reminded the residents of the jurisdiction to be more vigilant through the police WeChat group .
During the epidemic, the Shanghai police never slack off in anti-fraud publicity like this.
In response to the frequent types of fraud during the epidemic, the Shanghai Public Security Bureau, together with the Municipal Communications Administration, has deployed 3 operators to send more than 40 million anti-fraud publicity messages to mobile phone users across the city.
In the community, the police used nucleic acid testing points as positions. While maintaining order, they worked with village committee staff and epidemic prevention volunteers to popularize anti-fraud knowledge to the masses by distributing leaflets and posting posters, and guided more than 200,000 citizens to actively register. National Anti-Fraud Center App.
In the Fangcang cabin hospital, the police used various forms such as small class explanations and face-to-face communication to strengthen the case-based explanation, popularize anti-fraud knowledge, and effectively enhance the anti-fraud awareness and ability of the citizens in the cabin.
In addition, the police have also applied police drones to anti-fraud propaganda. While reducing the risk of epidemic prevention and control, the drones are light, flexible, and spread widely to create a fully-covered, three-dimensional format. anti-fraud safety net.
For those enterprises that have been defrauded, the Shanghai Anti-Fraud Center also sent an "Anti-Fraud Reminder Letter" in a timely manner, urging the companies involved to earnestly fulfill their responsibilities as the main body of anti-fraud, timely check for security loopholes in the mail system, and check and rectify work mailboxes. There are hidden problems such as weak passwords in the mailbox passwords of key departments such as finance and administration, and preventive measures should be taken from the source.
