Recently, "online fraud+offline delivery" has become a new way of committing telecom network fraud. Police reminder: If someone requests to pick up cash from their doorstep for various reasons, or sends cash or gold through express delivery, ride hailing, or other means, it is likely that they have encountered telecommunications fraud. Sending cash from a rice cooker was stopped by the police. The Zhongyuan Road Police Station in Yangpu, Shanghai received a clue from the two levels of anti fraud centers in the city, informing them that a potential victim was experiencing telecom fraud at a certain address in their jurisdiction. The police quickly rushed to the warning address. At first, Ms. Zhang said that these things were to be donated to Hope Primary School. The police found traces of repackaging on the packaging paper box of one of the rice cookers. Opening the packaging, there was actually a stack of hundred yuan cash inside. Originally, a few days ago, Ms. Zhang came across an advertisement for part-time jobs to earn money, joined a group, and then completed tasks to earn money. After earning a little money, she invested two more transactions totaling over 10000 yuan, but the other party claimed that there was an abnormality in her account. Ms. Zhang: After making a mistake, he needs 19500 yuan to unlock it. How do I give the money? He said you should buy a rice cooker, a frying pan, some bowls, and some chopsticks, and he said they were sent to Hope Primary School. He said to put this money in the rice cooker, and once he received it, he would refund both the money and the previous one. Ms. Zhang said that many people in the group operate in this way to recover the investment and profit from brushing orders, so she followed suit. Police officer: It must be all thanks. It's true that you're the only one in a group, while everyone else is a scammer. A person can open a computer and have hundreds of accounts to chat with themselves and show them to you. Under the persuasion of the police, Ms. Zhang finally realized that she had been deceived. At present, the case is still under further investigation. Police officer Zhou Xunbei from the Anti Fraud Special Team of Yangpu Public Security Bureau: In such a situation, we require you to disguise cash as daily necessities to transfer funds, disguise it as rice cookers, thermos cups, or even car parts and milk powder cans. Be careful. The police in Hezhou, Guangxi recently received a warning message that a citizen suspected of being involved in telecommunications fraud was planning to deliver 20000 yuan in cash. The police immediately went to the scene and found Ms. Li, who was waiting for the consignee. On November 25th, Ms. Li received an unfamiliar package and, out of curiosity, scanned the code to enter a so-called "part-time group". With a trial and error mindset, Ms. Li completed the first task, and the "customer service" also sent her gifts such as rice and a hot pot as promised. Ms. Li, who tasted the sweetness, began to do large-scale recharge tasks. After recharging 3000 yuan, the "customer service" demanded 20000 yuan from Ms. Li on the grounds that her review was incorrect and she needed 20000 yuan in cash to repair the data, and stated that they would refund her afterwards. Ms. Li believed it to be true and followed the instructions of the "customer service" to put 20000 cash into the hot water bottle provided by the "customer service", waiting for the truck driver arranged by the "customer service" to come and pick up the goods. Fortunately, the police found Ms. Li first and saved her losses. At present, the case is still under further investigation. The police remind that money laundering is an important part of telecommunications fraud. The above two cases were both victims who were deceived online and needed to collect cash through mail or ride hailing services offline. In this way, ride hailing drivers and delivery drivers have become "electronic fraud tools". Police remind ride hailing drivers to pay attention to the situation of "no one on board" and promptly contact the public security department if any abnormal situations are found. Online ride hailing platforms also need to strengthen supervision, discover abnormal clues through technological means, timely push them to the public security organs for secondary analysis, cooperate with the public security organs to crack down on related illegal and criminal activities, and not let online ride hailing become a "cash truck" for fraud gangs. Drivers of ride hailing or cargo pulling services who subjectively know that they are carrying fraudulent items or that the packages they are transporting are stolen funds from fraudulent groups will bear legal responsibility. Objectively, transferring these fraudulent funds to fraudsters is actually providing assistance for fraudulent activities, which has violated relevant laws. Depending on the level of participation, there may be suspicion of fraud, aiding and abetting, and money laundering. (New Society)
