As the Spring Festival approaches, many platform merchants
have begun to send various promotional text messages
, among which some merchants have launched points clearance activities
urge to redeem points accumulated by daily consumption as soon as possible
reminder "If you don't redeem it in time, it will expire and be invalid."
But at this time,
scammers are also staring at the "opportunity" to fool people!
"Points redemption" "Points clearance" reminder text message
I believe many people may have received
Everyone must be cautious and pay attention to identification!
A few days ago, Mr. Yang, a citizen of Jiangmen , received a
point redemption text message sent by a telecom operator. The content is as follows
Dear customer: Hello! Your phone fee points of 3160 will expire soon. Please log in to eb-10086.com/bank on your mobile phone to activate the cash gift package.
Seeing the text message was sent by the operator whose mobile phone number
, and the URL in the text message is similar to the real URL
, and the URL in the text message is similar to the real URL
, Mr. Yang did not doubt too much, so he clicked on the URL
, and then entered a page titled
, "Palm Business Hall"
, page
, required to fill in the name, ID number,
, credit card number, transaction password and other information
, after Mr. Yang filled in as required,
, entered another title

After continuing to fill in the information, he was asked to download the security control
(actually a Trojan program)
Mr. Yang submitted the information
Not long after, he received multiple consumption text messages
prompted that his credit card was consumed for 7739 yuan
Zhuhai Mr. Zhang also encountered the same scam
I wanted to exchange points for a air fryer
As a result, more than 20,000 yuan was gone!
In fact, these scams are all scammers disguised themselves as telecom operators and sent text messages
through base station
to induce victims to fill in personal information
and download Trojan software
Finally, snatch the victim's credit card
Recently, various promotional activities have entered the peak period
In order to avoid being deceived
, you must pay attention to the following points!
01
When receiving a text message for points redemption, even if it is a text message sent by a familiar customer service number, you cannot easily believe it.
"10086" and "l0086"
can't tell the difference between
If you don't look carefully, most people may mistakenly think that this is really sent by 10086, but if you look closely at "l0086" here, you will find that it is L in lowercase instead of 1. The scammers take advantage of everyone's low recognition of the English letter "l" and the number "1" to confuse the horizon and take advantage of tricks.
02
Anyone with a URL link in a text message must be careful to identify it. Never click it at will. It may be Trojan virus or a counterfeit phishing website.
Whether it is an activity text message sent by a bank, a telecom operator, or a merchant, it will not require users to fill in very sensitive information such as bank card password, ID number, etc., and it is even more impossible to ask users to fill in credit card validity period, security code and other information.
prefix and suffix confusing the field of vision
takes you to the phishing website
scammers send text messages through pseudo-base stations: http://waip-10086m.com/. There is also an m letter on the website, which is 10086m. This is obviously a phishing website. Never operate as required, otherwise there will be heavy losses!
03
handles points redemption business, try not to jump directly to the link operation. You can call the official customer service number or log in to the official website for consultation, or open the mobile app downloaded through the official channel to operate.
impersonate a staff member to obtain verification information
scammers will also impersonate a staff member, make phone calls to promote the points exchange for gifts, and ask for verification codes and passwords; or lie about winning or point feedback activities, asking for various verification information, and defrauding money.
In short, when you receive a similar text message, you should pay more attention to
to avoid being deceived
. If you find that you are cheated
, please call 110 to call the police in time!
