Recently, Xiao Pan, a female college student, received a call from a man claiming to be a financial institution. She realized that it was a telecommunications fraud and exposed the man on the spot. After the scammer admitted it, instead of giving up, he asked the girl if she needed a partner. Pan's series of soulful persuasion made the other party speechless: "You lied to me again, and then you couldn't lie to me, which means your IQ is not as high as mine. After all, you don't have money, you don't look good, and your voice is not good, ugh... Let’s do something serious.”

According to Xiao Pan, she had received scam calls before and learned about the scammers’ methods after searching online. So the scammer was more vigilant when he called the second time and was not fooled.

After receiving the call, the other party asked if she had used Jingdong Baitiao. She knew it was a liar as soon as she heard it. The liar knew that his identity had been discovered, so he started chatting and asked if he needed a partner. This resulted in this "soul persuasion".
