In June this year, Mr. Song, who lives in Yuecheng District, Shaoxing, Zhejiang, came to Sunduan Police Station to call the police and said that he had been cheated of marriage. It turned out that a year ago, Mr. Song met a woman named Nana online, and the two immediately started dating, but just when Mr. Song successfully proposed to Nana and was about to enter the marriage hall, Nana disappeared.
victim Mr. Song: After a long time, aren’t you going to meet your parents? She made all kinds of reasons just to swear or excuse her, but later she found something was wrong. For various reasons, my parents were not here, and I was in Shanghai. During the epidemic, I couldn’t contact you later.
Mr. Song told reporters that Nana always says she is very busy in managing her family business, so the two can only meet each other every half month or a month. During the date, Nana said she was pregnant. Mr. Song also planned a marriage proposal ceremony and gave Nana a dowry and jewelry gift worth more than 200,000 yuan.
victim Mr. Song: Illusionately or unintentionally said that the little sister is in love and then she is going to get married. How did the other party’s parents give money? Then I unintentionally suggest that there is a custom in our Shaoxing , give gifts and red envelopes.
What Mr. Song didn't expect was that he was just a random marriage fraud target that Nana chose through the online dating platform. According to police investigation, Nana's real name was Pan. After using the online dating platform to find single men nearby, she began to make excuses to chat with these men. She would usually post some friends to eat in high-end places and drive luxury cars to confuse these men.

His parents were engaged in printing business. My words were from studying abroad, and I was a teacher before. Now I am helping my family to organize my printing business, and I have a luxury car with Ferrari in my name. When I was passing by the street, there would be a luxury car parked on the side of the road, and then she would take photos to make others mistakenly think that this was her own car.
In order to make the victim completely fall into his own marriage fraud trap, Pan will also follow the victim to meet the other elders and exchange small gifts for the trust of the elders.
Deputy Director of Sun Duan Police Station, Yuecheng District Branch of Shaoxing Public Security Bureau: During the process of meeting parents, she would buy some gifts during the date, and then she would take the initiative to pay when she went out for a trip or had dinner. In addition, he would also go to see other relatives and friends with the man's family, thus gaining the trust of the man.
Online dating is just the beginning of a scam
It’s like this. Pan is involved in several men as an unmarried young, rich and beautiful woman. After gradually capturing the trust of these men, the real fraud plot began to take place.
In further investigation, the police found that there are two ways to cheat Pan's emotional scam. The first is to have an ambiguous relationship with the victim. She will be affected by her family's company in Chongqing or have a car accident in Chongqing.

Pan would ask for money on the grounds of pregnancy, marriage bride price, etc.
Wu Feng, deputy director of Sun Duan Police Station, Yuecheng District Branch of Shaoxing Public Security Bureau: For example, Xiang said that he was in Chongqing because someone had caused trouble and needed to settle it. In addition, he borrowed money from the man on the grounds that he had a car accident on the way to Chongqing and needed compensation, and it was about 20,000 yuan each time. Because the man wanted to have further development with Pan, he usually tried his best to raise money and called her immediately.
Pan's main target of fraud is single men around 30 years old, especially several men who are anxious to get married under the pressure of urging marriage from all parties, which is more likely to fall into the trap of marriage fraud. After successfully cheating the victim's money, Pan would make excuses to break up.
0 Police officer from Sunduan Police Station, Yuecheng District Branch of Shaoxing Public Security Bureau: But while breaking up, she will look for the next target in QQ groups and other social software.
