Common investment and financial management fraud analysis

The fraudsters in the group will play the role of "experts" in stock investment, share and exchange investment experience through chat, and send links or QR codes to the victim to download the fake investment platform App;
Step 2: When the victim successfully takes the bait to download the App, the scammers usually use small rebates to let the victim taste the sweetness for the first time. , think that investment can really make a profit, and after gaining further trust from the victim, the scammers will continue to induce the victim to increase the investment amount;

The fraudsters will continue to ask the victim to transfer money on the grounds such as paying "margin" and " personal income tax ", so that the victim will find that he has been blocked and the investment and financial management website or APP cannot log in.
