Be careful! WeChat and Alipay have been used to cheat people again

"Hello, I am a WeChat (Alipay) staff member. Since your free period of 'million guarantee' has ended, you need to provide bank card information and immediately close it, otherwise you will automatically deduct fees every month

"Hello, I am a WeChat (Alipay) staff member. Since your free period of 'million guarantee' has ended, you need to provide bank card information and immediately close it, otherwise you will automatically deduct fees every month." When you receive such calls or messages, you must be vigilant.

Recently, the 7th Brigade of the Kunming Public Security Bureau Special Police Detachment received a command from the 110 Command Center of the Xishan Branch with a mobile number 57. A crowd reported to the police that they had received a strange call from a staff member claiming to be a "million medical insurance" and requested the bank card information of the informant. The informant had already informed the other party of the card information, and now suspects that the other party is a telecommunications fraud, requiring police to verify on site.

After receiving the alarm, Gao Bin and Yang Jian, the police officers on duty on the mobile vehicle No. 57, immediately led the auxiliary police officers Liu Jinhong and Zheng Yongqiang to the scene in a hurry. On the way to the scene, the police immediately contacted the person reporting the incident by phone, informing them not to engage in any transaction or transfer operations, and not to answer the other person's phone calls again, waiting for the police to arrive at the scene for processing.

After arriving at the scene, the police found the informant to understand the situation. Ms. Wu, the informant, said that she recently received a strange phone call from her hometown in Guangdong.

During the phone call, the other party claimed to be a staff member of the "Million Medical Insurance" and claimed that Ms. Wu's insurance was about to expire. She needed to provide bank card information and transfer over 9000 yuan to continue to provide protection. Under the guidance of the other party, she provided Ms. Wu with card number information and bank card balances of multiple banks under her name, and also sent her a text message verification code.

The other party led the police to try to transfer money with Alipay to verify whether the "secret free payment" function was activated. At this time, Alipay reminded the other party that the account returned the transfer amount abnormally. Ms. Wu felt that something was wrong and suspected that the other party might be a liar, so she immediately called the police for help.

The police reported that the other party had been constantly calling and playing videos after discovering that they had started to suspect, making their behavior even more suspicious.

After a detailed understanding of the situation, the police told the police that this was a typical telecom network fraud scam of pretending to be a customer service person. The swindler would guide the victim to transfer out the money in the bank card bound in WeChat and Alipay, so as to achieve the purpose of fraud, on the grounds that the victim's WeChat and Alipay "million medical insurance" expired. The person who reported the incident suddenly realized that it was fortunate that they reported the incident promptly after discovering something wrong, otherwise there was a high risk of huge losses.

The police conducted anti fraud knowledge promotion to the police and surrounding people on site, helping them download and install the National Anti Fraud Center APP. In the end, due to being rushed quickly and prevented in a timely manner, the reporter's property damage was avoided. Kunming Public Security's warm hearted and timely assistance was appreciated by the reporter.

Enable screen sharing and transfer money

Use the screen recording software downloaded by the victim to trick the victim into transferring money to a "secure account", or steal information such as the victim's bank card number and SMS verification code through "screen sharing" to transfer funds from the victim's card.
