Operators are serious. This kind of phone can't get through anymore

2022-05-05

In order to prevent Chinese residents from experiencing Telecom fraud, in March this year, Jiangxi Mobile, China Unicom and China Telecom all officially announced that local users are prohibited from receiving overseas information from March 28, 2022. In less than 30 days, the three major operators in Henan also announced that they would shut down users from receiving overseas information by default. If you want to open the overseas information receiving function, you can bring your ID number to the business hall, or send the SMS code to the operator. Jiangxi SMS code is "gjdxdg", Henan SMS code is "ktgjdx", send it to 10086 / 10010 / 10001. In just 30 days, operators in two populous provinces shut down users to receive overseas information by default. Has Telecom fraud developed to such a serious extent that operators are forced to help users isolate overseas fraud information in this way? Overseas gangs have become the main force of Telecom fraud In the first 11 months of 2021, Chinese police cracked more than 370000 telecom network fraud cases and arrested more than 549000 illegal suspect. Under the heavy pressure of China, many telecom fraud gangs began to transfer abroad. In 2021 alone, China destroyed more than 3 people and illegally left 10600 countries. These shocking figures are enough to show that overseas gangs have become the main force of Telecom fraud. What's more frightening is that all kinds of fraud routines are constantly exposed, and swindlers are forced to renovate their tricks, and follow current events more closely than ordinary netizens. For example, when the concept of the meta universe was spread from abroad to China and the Chinese people did not understand it, there were many meta universe fraud routines. Many overseas fraud gangs publicize meta universe games and meta universe funds through telephone and QQ group. The leakage of personal privacy information in China is too serious. In the eyes of swindlers, our identity is almost public. These scams keep up with current events, or use schemes close to our lives. When swindlers read our personal information, people with poor vigilance may be deceived. The pursuit of overseas telecom fraud gangs is more troublesome. Once there is property loss, it is difficult to recover it. For rampant fraud gangs, relevant domestic departments have continuously issued policies and programs to maintain the property safety of residents. Earlier, relevant departments launched the national anti fraud center app. After granting app permission, it can protect mobile phones and detect suspicious calls or text messages. The national anti fraud center app also has fraud exposure channels to constantly expose various tricks of swindlers. If you often watch these scams, you can be vigilant. In addition, some areas will also monitor the abnormal calls of users' mobile phones. After receiving the lost fraud call from the express, Xiao Lei soon received a call from the police station to remind me that what I just received was a fraud call. However, the number of swindlers is too large. Hundreds of thousands of criminals are arrested a year, but there are more hidden. Although the scheme developed by operators can not completely eliminate local telecom fraud, it can at least shield the fraud information from overseas and provide more protection for residents. Shielding overseas SMS should not be one size fits all? It is indeed simple and crude to directly block overseas SMS, but it is not suitable for all regions. Jiangxi and Henan have less foreign trade and more migrant workers. Many families are old people and children who stay in their hometown. These people basically have little demand for overseas information, but they are also the main target of fraudsters, so they are suitable for shielding overseas information across the board. Henan and Jiangxi have directly blocked overseas SMS, which must have been considered by many parties. This measure is necessary to popularize, especially in other non coastal provinces. As for coastal provinces such as Guangdong and Shanghai, they are the main windows of China's foreign trade. Although the three major operators have given plans to restore overseas SMS, not everyone knows that these regions can not rashly block all overseas SMS, otherwise it may cause some adverse effects in the short term. Operators' direct shielding of overseas SMS is an effective scheme to curb fraud gangs, and it is necessary to promote it on a larger scale. However, each region should consider the local actual situation. It is best to focus on provinces and cities with more elderly and children and less foreign trade. However, this scheme can only limit overseas fraud information, and more fraud information comes from home. Operators have many means, but they still need efforts from all walks of life Since it is a telecommunications fraud, it is natural to use various communication methods. There are a large number of mobile phone cards in the hands of fraud gangs. For those people, operators also joined hands with the police to carry out in-depth "card breaking" operations. In 2021, 39000 criminal gangs involving "two cards" were eliminated, 420000 illegal suspect were investigated, and more than 5000 internal personnel of financial institutions and communication enterprises were investigated. Operators and the police have not been soft on Telecom fraud, and continue to crack down on Telecom fraud criminal gangs through various means. Their efforts have not been in vain. Compared with 2020, the number of Telecom fraud cases decreased significantly in 2021. In fact, telecommunications fraud occurred frequently many years ago, but in the Internet era, we have more channels to learn about telecommunications fraud cases. I still remember that in junior high school, Xiao Lei didn't need real name authentication to buy a mobile phone card. He could use it if he paid for it. This situation undoubtedly cultivated the soil for the breeding of Telecom fraud. Later, the three major operators joined hands to require the real name authentication of mobile phone cards, which seriously dealt a blow to the arrogance of criminals. The advent of the Internet era has diversified telecommunications fraud. Although operators continue to launch various schemes and insist on cracking down on fraud gangs, they are unable to achieve comprehensive screening in the face of a vast amount of information flow. There are also some criminals who register wechat and QQ with mobile phone numbers to implement Telecom fraud. In this regard, Tencent has also issued countermeasures, such as increasing reporting channels and strictly controlling the registration of new accounts. Fraud is a very old profession. Some people always want to get something for nothing. Before the real realization of Datong society, the profession of fraud cannot disappear. But our attitude towards fraud is changing, and the means to sanction fraudsters are increasing. Now we not only have the police to crack down on fraud gangs, operators and other enterprises are also doing their part, especially in the era of Telecom fraud, operators shoulder huge responsibilities.
