The five types of fraud in the Public Prosecution Law account for nearly 80% of the cases, making them the five most prominent high-incidence cases. Among them, the rate of fraudulent rebate fraud is the highest, accounting for about one-third of the total number of cases; fraudulent investment and wealth management fraud The amount involved is the largest, accounting for about one-third of all the funds involved.

  1. Rebate fraud

  Due to the short rebate cycle and high success rate of attracting traffic, the fraudulent rebate fraud has gradually evolved into the current type of fraud with the most variants and the fastest changes, and has been "integrated" with other telecommunication network fraud methods to become the main method of telecommunication network fraud.

The main criminal methods of fraudsters are: the first step, early drainage.

Publish part-time advertisements through webpages, text messages, social software, short video platforms and other channels, under the banner of "staying at home, high commissions", or using pornographic content and free gifts as bait, recruiting "swiping customers" and "points" "Praiser" and "Promoter", once a victim is "hooked", he will be pulled into the "task" chat group.

The second step is a small rebate.

After joining the chat group, the fraudsters will let the victim receive a "novice task" in the group. The "task" is mainly to increase the transaction volume and credibility of platform merchants and online stores, pay attention to relevant public accounts and accounts, and like short videos. Comments, brush fans, etc.

After the victim completes the "novice task", the scammer will quickly return a small commission to deceive the victim's trust.

The third step is to induce the download of the swipe APP.

On the basis that the victim has completed the preliminary tasks and made a profit, the fraudsters usually arrange for a special person to distribute the screenshots of the high commissions in the WeChat group, and lure the victim to download the fake billing APP to do "advanced tasks".

Subsequently, the fraudsters used "the more recharge, the more orders, the more rebates" as the bait, to lure the victim into recharging the money in the swiping APP, in fact, the victim's funds were transferred to the bank account provided by the victim, and the victim The amount shown in the person's APP account is just a fictitious number.

The fourth step is to complete the fraud.

When the victim wants to withdraw cash after completing the task, the fraudsters will set up many obstacles, refuse to pay the principal and commission, and even induce the victim to use various excuses such as "task not completed", "card bill", "abnormal operation account frozen" and so on. People increase investment, and then defraud more funds.

Once the victim sees through the scam, the scammer will cut all contact.

  [Typical case] In May 2022, Gao, Xianning, Hubei saw the information and QR code of "fixed basic salary, commission for likes and comments" in the WeChat group.

Gao Moumou added customer service by scanning the code, and downloaded a certain ordering APP under the guidance of the customer service.

After installing the APP, Gao contacted the "receptionist" in the APP, and he guided him to do the task of swiping orders.

Initially, the "receptionist" returned a commission of 20 yuan to Gao's Alipay account after completing the review task.

Gao Moumou saw that the commission had indeed arrived, so he entered the task hall in the APP to subscribe for the task list according to the other party's prompt.

The corresponding principal is required to subscribe to the task order. The higher the payment amount, the higher the return commission.

Gao Moumou completed 5 tasks successively, the subscription principal ranged from 100 yuan to 1,000 yuan, and the commission for each time was returned to his APP account, and then Gao Moumou cashed out to his bank card, and the arrival speed was very fast. , which further relaxed its vigilance.

Later, in order to get more commissions, Gao began to subscribe for a larger amount of compound task orders.

Such tasks require multiple orders to be completed continuously and cannot be withdrawn in the middle. Gao has invested a principal of 110,000 yuan successively.

However, when Gao completed the task as required, but found that he could not withdraw the cash, he quickly contacted the "receptionist", and the other party told him that the operation was wrong and caused a "card slip", and he needed to do a complex task to withdraw the cash.

Gao Moumou was aware of being deceived at this time, and when he asked the other party for the principal, he found that the other party had deleted his contact information, and the APP could no longer log in.

  [Police reminder] The fraudulent behavior is suspected of being illegal, and any fraudulent behavior that needs to be recharged or paid in advance is a fraud.

The other party called himself "Zhen Jun" and asked Yu to scan the code on WeChat to enter the stock exchange group.

Subsequently, the group administrator sent the APP installation package to Yu, asking him to download, install and register an account.

Within a week, according to the requirements of "Zhen Jun" and the administrator of the group, Yu transferred 3.47 million yuan to the other party's account in 10 transfers. During the period, he bought and sold stocks in the APP according to the other party's "investment guidance". , and successfully withdrawn 373,000 yuan.

Yu felt that the stock market was very profitable, so he continued to increase capital investment in the APP.

Under his inquiries, "Zhen Jun" and the group's administrators claimed that the platform had a problem and had been raided, and they were required to pay a fine of more than 1.2 million yuan before the balance in the account could be withdrawn.

Yu was unwilling to pay the fine, continued to ask the other party for the investment principal, and was blocked by the other party. At the same time, he found that the APP could not be logged in, so he found out that he had been deceived.

Subsequently, the other party requested the transfer on the grounds of paying the membership fee, unfreezing the funds, and proving the repayment ability. Fan made 4 transfers totaling 137,000 yuan through mobile banking, but the other party still claimed that the loan conditions were not met and could not lend.

At this time, Fan had the idea of ​​giving up the loan and asked the other party for the funds transferred before.

The other party told him that he would need to wait for the loan review to be approved before returning the funds, and then lost contact and could not log in to the APP.
