China News Service, March 18. According to the WeChat official account of the Chinese Embassy in Greece, on the morning of March 16, the Chinese Embassy in Greece successively received reports from Chinese citizens that some criminals used voice calls to fake the name of the embassy, falsely claiming that the parties had Documents, parcels, etc. need to be collected, and the parties are required to transfer manual services according to "9" to commit telecom fraud.
The Embassy in Greece solemnly reminds Chinese citizens in Greece to be vigilant and prevent all kinds of telecommunications frauds:
First, the Chinese Embassy in Greece does not have recording or machine voice calls, and will not ask the receiver to transfer or call back other calls.
Second, the embassy will not notify the parties by telephone to receive parcel letters, bank cards, cases, etc. that need to be processed in China, let alone ask for account information and passwords, or request transfers or remittances.
Third, do not credulously ask for personal information such as name, address, family situation, bank account, and transfer and remittance requirements in any name.
Matters involving remittances must be carefully judged and handled carefully.
If you receive a suspected fraudulent call, you must be vigilant and do not be deceived. It is recommended to call the consular department of the Chinese Embassy in Greece to verify it after you hang up the phone.
If you are unfortunately deceived, you should promptly report to the Greek police and at the same time report to the domestic public security organs.
