20 18 1 19 at 9 pm, Ms. Wang went shopping with her friends. When she came out of the mall to go home, she found her car missing. Ms. Wang was very anxious when she received a phone call from a man who claimed to be a staff member of Chengda Car Loan Company. She said that after handling the mortgage loan in her company, Ms. Wang found that the GPS positioning system installed in the car today had no signal. Ms. Wang violated the contract and the car has been driven to Hengshui City for temporary detention. If she wants a car, she needs to pay a redemption fee of 50 thousand yuan.
According to reports, Ms. Wang went to the car mortgage in Qiaodong District on June 5438+1October 65438+May, borrowed 30,000 yuan, and spent 50,000 yuan in just four days. 65438+1On October 22nd, she arrived in Hengshui. The other party claimed that her car had been bought by a car owner, and she had to pay 80,000 yuan to get it back. In order to redeem the car, Ms. Wang had to pay 80 thousand yuan. After returning to Xingtai, she immediately alerted the Qiaodong Public Security Bureau of Xingtai City.
During the investigation of the case, the police successively received reports from citizens Li and Shimou, all claiming that Chengda Car Loan Company used the car keys as mortgage loans, and was secretly driven away by the company for reasons such as overdue interest and poor GPS signal, and threatened to mortgage the car and demand a high redemption fee.
After in-depth investigation, the police found that a criminal gang that carried out extortion in the name of car loans surfaced. The gang is headed by the suspect Liu (male, 28 years old, from Renqiu, Hebei Province, with a criminal record of fraud). The main members are Gao (male, 28 years old), Wang (male, 27 years old) and (male, 23 years old, with a criminal record of theft and intentional injury. They fled from Hengshui to Xingtai to commit crimes, solicited car loan business in the name of "Chengda Car Loan Company", fabricated various reasons to detain the victim's car after the loan was paid, and then extorted a high redemption fare.
As several people fled for fear of sin, the police repeatedly went to Hengshui, Cangzhou and other places to carry out investigation and arrest. 20 18, 2 1 3, Xingtai police arrested four suspects in a hotel in Hengshui with the assistance of Hengshui public security organs.
After the trial, four suspects, including Liu, confessed that since June 20 17 and 10, they have set up strongholds in Hengshui, Renqiu, Baoding, Xingtai and other places to extort more than 50 car owners under the guise of providing loans, resulting in illegal profits of nearly one million yuan.
At present, four suspects, including Liu, have been under criminal detention.
The police suggested that "routine loan" is a new type of criminal means, which is very harmful to society. Citizens must borrow money through legal platforms, read the corresponding contract clauses carefully, and resolutely refuse to meet the "overlord clauses", such as excessive interest rate attached to the loan contract, "cash discount", high penalty interest and rolling interest. When dealing with loan companies, we should collect relevant evidence information, such as the identity information of the other party, loan contract, bank transaction details, repayment vouchers, etc. If you are threatened by words or personal threats, you should call the police for help in time.
