The girl is only 13 years old. Because she wanted to watch the replay of her idol’s concert, she added a group chat in the fan group. After entering the group chat, the group leader sent a picture and the girl followed the steps on the picture. Since the girl is a minor, she cannot complete the operation of binding the bank card. When the scammer found out, he told the girl that your operation just caused the company to lose 100,000 yuan, and now you need to cooperate with the unfreezing, otherwise you will be sued in court.
The girl found an excuse to get her father's mobile phone. Under the control of the scammer, the girl transferred more than 100,000 yuan to the other party within two hours. Later, the girl's father discovered that the bank card balance was wrong, and the girl told her father what happened in the WeChat group. The father immediately took his daughter to call the police. The police took this case very seriously. After about three months of investigation, the police arrested more than 10 suspects and returned the defrauded money to the victims.
What do I think about this case?
It is possible that many people are blaming girls for losing their minds after chasing stars, but I don’t think this is the main reason. No matter what reason the scammer uses to get the other party to transfer money, the girl's lack of experience and anti-fraud knowledge will lead to her being deceived. Parents should pay more attention to their children, especially when their children are playing with their mobile phones. In addition, never tell your children your payment password. This is not to prevent house thieves, but to prevent scammers.
How should I increase my anti-fraud knowledge?
You can download the National Anti-Fraud Center APP. After registration, this software can effectively intercept harassing calls, and it also has the function of scanning the phone for viruses. When we chat with scammers, the software will also have a self-test function. Once a scammer is found, a notification will be sent immediately. Sometimes when the police receive an early warning, they will call me and contact me. Downloading this software is definitely beneficial. However, you must go to the mobile application market to download it. Downloads from other places may not be formal. After downloading, you need to register and log in with your mobile phone number, and be careful not to turn off notification permissions.
