China News Service, July 1. According to the official WeChat news of the National Cyberspace Administration of China, in order to effectively protect the property safety of the people, the Cyberspace Administration of China, together with the Ministry of Public Security, has cracked down on counterfeit investment fraud platforms and accurately alerted potential victims.

Since the beginning of this year, the Anti-Fraud Center of the Cyberspace Administration of China has investigated and cracked down on 42,000 counterfeit apps and included them in the national fraud-related black sample database.

At present, the national fraud-related black sample database has covered and handled 3.804 million fraudulent websites, 514,000 APPs, and 415,000 cross-border phone calls, and the Internet warning and dissuasion platform has warned more than 2 billion people.

　　Recently, the Anti-Fraud Center of the Cyberspace Administration of China has found a number of fraudulent incidents of counterfeit investment platforms.

Fraudsters imitate platforms such as JD Finance, Ma Finance, 360 IOU, etc., and launch a large number of "Li Gui"-style APPs. They use similar logos and product introductions to confuse the real ones, and use "small rebates" to induce netizens to visit and download, and then commit fraud.

Some fraudulent platforms even claim to have a "state-owned enterprise background", attract users in the name of "national prefix", and develop offline in a "pulling head" model, causing huge property losses to some netizens.

　　The relevant person in charge of the Cyberspace Administration of China pointed out that fraudsters imitate investment platforms to induce defrauding netizens, causing netizens to suffer serious property losses, and may also lead to the leakage of personal information, which should be paid enough attention.

The general public needs to download the APP through official official channels; in case of unofficial customer service contact, pay attention to verifying the identity of the other party, and do not perform transfer operations.

Platforms such as APP stores should strengthen the security review of APPs available for download, to prevent fake APPs from fishing in troubled waters and harming the majority of netizens.

　　In order to improve the people's anti-fraud awareness and ability to recognize fraud, some typical cases are reported as follows:

　　1. In January 2022, Wu Moumou of Sichuan Province saw the propaganda information of the counterfeit APP of "Nong E Loan" on the Internet. Due to the lack of funds, he clicked to download it and filled in the information to apply for a loan, but it was shown that the loan failed.

The so-called online customer service "communicated" with Wu Moumou, saying that his account information did not match, and he needed to verify the funds first.

Wu Moumou believed it to be true, so he transferred 30,000 yuan to the designated account, and later found out that he had been deceived.

　　2. In February 2022, Jiang Mou from Hebei Province downloaded the counterfeit “Oriental Fortune” APP for related investment operations.

During this period, Jiang received a message showing that he had made a third-party remittance of 200,000 yuan. Since it was an illegal operation without reporting, and it had been handed over to the risk control department for disposal, Jiang had to pay a 20% risk deposit of 40,000 yuan. , otherwise the account will be frozen, and Jiang Mou will find that he has been deceived after transferring money.

　　3. In June 2022, Qin Moumou in Shandong Province applied for a loan of 100,000 yuan on the counterfeit APP of "Finance Now". The platform requires 10,000 yuan of financial loan insurance to be paid first, otherwise it cannot be withdrawn.

Qin Moumou still could not withdraw the cash after paying the money as required. The platform required another 50,000 yuan for the capital verification fee, and promised to return the insurance premium and the capital verification fee. Qin Moumou was deceived by a total of 60,000 yuan after charging the money.

　　4. In April 2022, Zhang Moumou of Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region downloaded the counterfeit APP "China Post Securities" and followed the "teacher" in the WeChat group to conduct investment operations.

At the beginning, he invested 100,000 yuan, and after making a profit, he added 300,000 yuan. It was found that the investment continued to lose money. Zhang Moumou planned to withdraw the remaining money, but the withdrawal failed many times, and the platform urged him to continue to invest more.

Zhang Moumou noticed the abnormality, and then the platform could not be accessed.

　　5. In January 2022, Peng Mou in Jiangxi Province applied for a loan on the counterfeit "Anyihua" APP, and the bank card number was wrong when withdrawing cash, and the account was frozen.

The platform asked him to transfer 10,000 yuan to prove that it was his operation. After Peng made the transfer, his account returned to normal, but it was later found to be frozen. The platform claimed that Peng made a mistake and needed to continue to verify. Peng found that he had been deceived.

　　6. In May 2022, Zhang Mou from Liaoning Province downloaded the counterfeit APP "Ping An Securities" after being recommended by a friend, and invested 180,000 yuan successively.

Soon Zhang received the notification of the platform upgrade and carried out the upgrade operation according to the prompts, but the platform showed that his account number was a "risk account", which was suspected of money laundering. .

Zhang made several transfers and was deceived a total of 250,000 yuan.

　　7. In March 2022, Qian Moumou of Henan Province made futures investment on the counterfeit APP of "Great Wall Assets".

The platform's customer service added its WeChat account on the grounds of providing value-added services for free, and informed Qian Moumou to pay 25,000 yuan to become a "VIP user", enjoy discounts on handling fees and get priority access to relevant market information.

Qian Moumou believed it to be true, so he made a transfer to the designated account, and was finally blocked by the platform customer service.
