What is online fraud?

Fictitious platform can mislead customers to invest a lot of money in the platform for false stock trading and fraud.

2. Use the network search engine to improve the attention of fake websites.

In order to improve the popularity and click-through rate of fake shopping websites and expand the business volume, criminals rank fake websites in a prominent position in search engines through the "bidding ranking promotion" business of online search engines to lure users to "take the bait".

3. Lie to increase the credit limit.

For the purpose of illegal possession, criminals use baidu promotion, QQ and other online platforms to publish false information such as handling unsecured micro-loans and increasing the credit card limit, and leave contact information to trick the victims into falling for it. Once someone makes contact, criminals pretend to be bank staff and take the identity information and credit card information of the victim to carry out fraud activities.

4. Imitate the criminal ways described in TV programs to commit fraud.

In order to get rich, criminals even imitate the criminal ways in TV programs to engage in fraud activities. Once the victim "falls into the trap", criminals will fabricate all kinds of lies to implement serial fraud.

5. False preparation for charitable donations

Criminals pretend to be wealthy businessmen, make friends through QQ chat, find victims and gain their trust. After catching the victim with "charitable donation" as bait, other associates acted as "well-known lawyers" around the wealthy businessman, demanding the victim to pay taxes, handling fees, notarization fees and other expenses on the grounds of handling relevant donation procedures on his behalf. After the victim was cheated to pay, the suspect quickly transferred to his "safe account" through the network.

6, fake express after-sales service

Criminals buy a large number of documents from courier companies through illegal channels to screen out customers who need to return them. Afterwards, criminals contacted customers by pretending to be after-sales personnel and company managers. And in the name of helping to return the goods, the victim is required to put in a return deposit around 400 yuan. After receiving the money, they tricked the victims into continuing to remit money on the grounds that the bank deducted the handling fee and the company's accounting invoices had different denominations.

Extended data:

Several ways to avoid being cheated:

1. Search this company or online store with a search engine to check whether the contents of certificates such as telephone number, address, contact person and business license are consistent and verify the authenticity of the website. The home pages of regular websites all have "Red Shield" icon and "ICP" number, which appear as text links.

2. Check whether the office address of the company is indicated on the website. If there is, you may wish to negotiate with the company and say that it is close to the address and you can pay directly in the company. If the other party uses various excuses to evade obstruction, it proves that this is a trap.

3. When shopping online, it is best to try to go to the website opened by a reputable company in real life or a large well-known shopping website with credit system and security to buy the required items.

Don't be fooled by the low-priced goods on some websites, which is often the bait set by criminal suspects.

5. Be extra careful when you ask friends for information such as investment, money-making plan or get rich quick plan online or by email. Don't believe in free gifts or prizes, and don't pay any fees.

6. Report the found bad information and websites suspected of fraud to the public security organs in time.
