2025-01-27
As the Spring Festival approaches, some criminals are also eager to take advantage of people's relaxed vigilance during the holiday period to carry out illegal activities such as fraud. The online clearing company has released a guide for anti fraud during the Spring Festival, highlighting the commonly used fraud methods in recent times. It reminds the public to tighten their guard against fraud, protect their "wallets", and spend a happy, peaceful, and beautiful New Year. During the Spring Festival, various red envelopes are flying everywhere, and criminals will also take advantage of the situation to commit fraud. Do not believe or click on links related to unknown sources of winning prizes, red envelopes, and other related information, as it can result in phone poisoning or even loss of money. If you need to redirect to other websites or request to follow or share before claiming red envelopes, it is all a scam! Please refuse to fill in important information such as personal ID card number, mobile phone number and bank card number. Ticket fraud during the Chinese New Year holiday makes people eager to return home. Criminals will take the opportunity to "sell" tickets that are priced lower than the market price at the right time. Once payment is successful, the page will prompt "ticket issuance failed" and the ticket money will be gone forever. Please make sure to purchase car (machine) tickets through legitimate channels and do not easily click or scan any unknown website links or QR codes to prevent mobile phone poisoning and bank account theft! At the end of the year, points redemption scams always receive messages saying 'points are about to expire, please redeem them in a timely manner'. Due to the existence of pseudo base station technology, even text messages sent from familiar customer service numbers cannot be easily trusted! When requesting to log in to the website link under the pretext of "points redemption" or "points about to be cleared or expire", it is necessary to verify with the official customer service channel of the service provider before selecting to view. On the eve of the Spring Festival travel rush, returning home to visit relatives has reached a peak, and taking a plane for travel has become a popular choice. After obtaining the passenger's name, ID card number and flight information through illegal channels, the lawbreakers disguise the call of the airline's customer service by changing the number, falsely claim that the passenger's flight has been cancelled, changed or delayed, and propose to make corresponding compensation for this. Do not trust calls from unknown sources or some "official customer service" calls, and directly contact the airline or ticket purchasing unit for verification. The online shopping lottery fraud is approaching the Chinese New Year, which is the peak period for sending and receiving New Year goods. Criminals usually induce online shoppers to scan codes and redeem prizes by mailing unknown packages containing gift cards, which actually hides the fraud of brushing orders. For collect express delivery with unknown origin, it is necessary to insist on verifying the identity of the courier and the items inside the package. Do not scan the QR code card inside an unknown package to add a "customer service" friend, and do not click on unfamiliar links to fill in personal information. The online clearing company reminds the public not to trust strangers' information and phone numbers, not to disclose personal sensitive information at will, and to call the National Anti Fraud Center at 96110 in a timely manner when encountering suspicious situations.
