He said that I am suspected of money laundering crimes. As I am abroad, I need to download an app on my phone for 24-hour remote 'detention'. He manipulated all the information exchange on my phone, so that I cannot tell anyone. He said that my 'detention' status is good and helped me apply for bail pending trial, asking me to find a way to raise 390000 Singapore dollars (about 2.13 million RMB). He asked me to use psychology to manipulate my mother. Recently, in the conference room of Jiading Branch of Shanghai Public Security Bureau, the reporter met 19-year-old international student Xiao Wang. She was detained in Singapore by a person claiming to be a police officer from a certain public security bureau in Shanghai, who used her mobile phone to remotely monitor her for more than 40 days under the pretext of "detention", and almost cheated out of more than 2 million yuan. After a long period of psychological reconstruction, she decided to share this' darkest moment 'with the public, hoping to raise awareness among more people. In June of this year, Xiao Wang was studying at a university in Singapore when an unexpected foreign telegram disrupted her peaceful study abroad life. The phone card under your name has sent multiple fraudulent text messages and has been reported by multiple people. It will be shut down soon A staff member claiming to be from a certain information company first accurately reported Xiao Wang's name, and then informed her that she was suspected of fraud. Faced with the sudden news, Xiao Wang's first reaction was to prove her innocence. The other party took the opportunity to remind her that if she did not apply for this card, it was likely that her identity information had been stolen by someone else. It was recommended to report to the police for handling and transfer her to the Shanghai police. Before I could think much, the phone had already been transferred to the hotline of a certain public security bureau in Shanghai. A person claiming to be a police officer informed Xiao Wang in a serious tone that her identity information had not only been stolen and used to apply for a phone card, but also a bank card, and this bank card was found in the home of a failed bank president in Shanghai. After investigation, it was found that the card was involved in multiple huge money laundering transactions. The routine of one after another left little Wang with no time to question the other person's identity, and his thoughts were completely led by the other person's nose. Given the seriousness of the case you are involved in, if you do not cooperate with our work, even if you are in Singapore, the police will find your address and take you away in handcuffs! "The other party's voice suddenly increased. At this moment, Xiao Wang was alone in her apartment in Singapore, with no one around to seek help from. Faced with a series of intimidation, she was extremely scared and had already believed what the other person said. The case is still under further investigation, and we will not arrest you in Singapore during this period. However, in order to keep the case information confidential, we will conduct remote 'surveillance' on you After exerting immense pressure, the other party relaxed their grip. At this point, Xiao Wang had no idea. Like a puppet, he downloaded a foreign communication software step by step under the guidance of the other party and deleted various social apps already installed on his phone. From then on, the other party requested Xiao Wang to open the newly downloaded overseas communication software in order to control his phone, turn on the phone camera 24 hours a day, and monitor his every move. You must not tell anyone about this confidential case, otherwise an additional charge will be added, "the stern reminder from the" police "occasionally came through the phone. And when Xiaowang goes out to class, she also needs to turn on the call mode inside the software, and cannot communicate with others outside. At the same time, the other party further brainwashed them, 'You must not tell your family about this matter. Do you want them to worry about you?' and instructed Xiao Wang to reply to his family's inquiries with WeChat text and refuse video calls. Under strict surveillance day after day, Xiao Wang almost cut off contact with everyone, holding his phone all day and night, in a state of being "detained" and becoming a "prisoner" remotely controlled. On the 40th day of being "held in custody", Xiao Wang suddenly received a notice from the other party, saying that the "Attorney General" decided to detain all "suspect", including Xiao Wang, back home. Under Xiao Wang's repeated pleas, the "Chief Prosecutor" agreed to allow her, who had "minor circumstances," to pay a deposit of 390000 Singapore dollars to be released on bail pending trial. In order to help Xiao Wang raise this money, the other party also "thoughtfully" forged an admission letter for a certain university exchange program, asking her to use it to ask her parents for money. Mom, I have received an admission letter for the university exchange program and need to submit a personal asset proof of 390000 SGD first. You can transfer the money to my card Under the control of the other party, Xiao Wang sent this message to his mother, Ms. Li, and attached a photo of the admission letter. Ms. Li wholeheartedly supports her daughter's education, but at the same time, she has encountered difficulties. 390000 Singapore dollars is not a small amount, but the admission letter requires that it be paid in full before August 30th this year. She immediately contacted several local friends in Singapore, sent chat records, explained the situation, and hoped they could help raise money. After receiving the message, a lawyer friend suddenly called and said, "There is something wrong with this admission letter, it seems to be fake." Ms. Li followed her friend's advice and asked Xiao Wang to directly forward an email sent by the school as proof. I didn't expect this to provoke my daughter's dissatisfaction. Helplessly, Ms. Li calmed her daughter's emotions while entrusting a friend to investigate quietly. After verifying with the school officials, this matter is purely fictitious. Worried that Xiao Wang might be deceived, the couple dared not speak up and immediately bought the nearest flight from Shanghai to Singapore. Girl, Mom and Dad are going to Singapore to see you today Although Ms. Li and her husband deliberately concealed it, the unaware grandmother still informed Xiao Wang on WeChat. After receiving the message, the fake police immediately changed their tactics and manipulated Xiao Wang to purchase the nearest flight back to China. When Ms. Li and her husband arrived at Xiao Wang's apartment in Singapore, they couldn't find their daughter, but found a handwritten "release on bail pending trial" petition from her. The two individuals, who were extremely anxious, quickly reported the case to the local police. While investigating, the Singaporean police also promptly informed the Chinese Embassy in Singapore of the case. The embassy staff initially judged that Xiao Wang had been involved in fraud by impersonating "public security, procuratorial, and judicial" officials, and immediately activated the anti fraud linkage response mechanism to coordinate the work of the police in both countries. After receiving the report, the Criminal Investigation Bureau of the Ministry of Public Security instructed the Shanghai police to follow up and carry out follow-up disposal work. Immediately, the Shanghai public security organs acted quickly, and the airport police safely received Xiao Wang at the exit as soon as possible. However, under the long-term threat and intimidation of fraudsters, Xiao Wang developed strong resistance towards the police. After talking to her parents, she was willing to take a police car back to her home in Jiading District. The Shanghai Anti Fraud Center, together with the Jiading Public Security Bureau, promptly dispatched anti fraud police officer Lu Hang to Xiaowang's home to carry out work. Faced with Xiao Wang's doubts and fears, Lu Hang did not confront her head-on. Instead, they changed their mindset and gradually reconstructed Xiao Wang's experience of being deceived, clearly informing the public security organs of the case handling process and other methods. Finally, they made her understand that online, telephone, and even cross-border telephone handling of bail pending trials are all fraudulent language that cannot appear in the actual case handling process. After more than an hour of patient persuasion, Xiao Wang finally woke up and realized that he had actually fallen into the "trap of electronic fraud". Using suspected crimes to intimidate, block communication with the outside world, bombard and indoctrinate, and then deeply brainwash, is a typical tactic of impersonating 'public security, procuratorial and judicial' fraud Lu Hang said that international students often study alone overseas and are more likely to encounter such fraud. The more such situations occur, the more vigilant they should be and establish close connections with family, friends, and trusted institutions. They must not fall into a "vacuum" environment. The police also remind international students and parents to pay attention to personal privacy and safety, pay more attention to anti fraud propaganda, be "not gullible" and "not transfer money", communicate with friends, family and the school in a timely manner when encountering problems, and remember the 24-hour hotline of the Global Consular Protection and Service Emergency Call Center of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs at 12308.
