Unfamiliar investment information is not reliable, and only by being cautious can one sail a thousand years of ship. A man in Fengyuan District, Taichung City suddenly jumped out of a strange message claiming to be a consultant of a financial management teaching company on LINE a few days ago, and took the initiative to share investment information with the man. After chatting for a while, he gained the trust of the man, he said that because the investment urgently needed cash reconciliation turnover, he asked the man to remit money to the financial institution as instructed. Because the banker noticed that the purpose of the remittance was different, he called the police to deal with it, so that the man could successfully save the hard-earned money he had earned.
Luo Youzong, a police officer from the Fengyuan Branch of the Taichung Municipal Government Police Station, received a telegram from a bank banker at around 14:00 on September 22, saying that a man surnamed Liu (born in 1973) had a different purpose of remittance and needed the assistance of the police. It is understood that a few days ago, a strange man from Liu's LINE suddenly added a friend. The other party took the initiative to chat with Liu and claimed to be an futures financial consultant. After gaining Liu's trust by chatting and teaching futures financial management, he said that he is investing in futures and making profits. Because funds misappropriation requires cash reconciliation, he asked Liu to remit NT$220,000 to the designated account. Liu did not suspect that he was in a hurry to send money to the bank.
During the process of handling the remittance, the bank banker noticed that Liu Nan's money had different uses and immediately notified the police to come to the scene to deal with it. Liu Nanyu complained that he had to remit the money because the investment consulting company was in a hurry to reconcile, so he could not refuse to remit money. After the police learned the whole story, he dissuaded Liu Nan to prevent it. This was a common method and speech of "fake investment and real fraud". Liu Nan was still unwilling to believe it was a fraud at first. Until the police had a sudden inspiration, he asked him to call the contact information left on the company's official website first. Unexpectedly, the phone number was turned out to be an empty number. Liu Nan immediately woke up and fell into the trap of the fraud group, and constantly thanked the police and the merchants for their enthusiastic assistance, so that they could prevent the start of fake investment in time to prevent the subsequent larger amount of money from being remitted. Xiao Weizhi, director of the cooperative police station of
, called for the general environment and economy to be relatively impacted by the epidemic, and emerging investment fraud methods are emerging one after another. If you encounter similar fraud, you should think carefully and evaluate and verify from multiple parties. If you receive suspicious messages or phone calls, be sure to call 110 dedicated line to verify to maintain your own property safety.
