"Strange phone calls are not credulous, strange accounts are not transferred, and strange links are not clicked", which is a propaganda slogan to prevent communication network fraud. The catchy propaganda slogan has built a "anti-fraud wall" for the citizens. One day, however, you get a call from an acquaintance, and the call shows the name in the phone address book. Will you still be vigilant?
Recently, Li San (a pseudonym), a parent of Wenzhou Longwan, received a phone call with his son's name and was cheated by 300,000 yuan. Afterwards, Li San recalled that it was mainly because the caller ID was his son's name that he was taken lightly and cheated!
Old scam+rebranding software = perfect scam
"Son" cried, "Dad, I have been kidnapped."
On the morning of May 9, Li San of Longwan, Wenzhou received a phone call, and the caller ID was his son's name Li Lin (a pseudonym). "Li San, your child was kidnapped by us. Pay a ransom of 500 thousand yuan. Don't hang up and call the police, or you'll never see your child again. " During the call, Li San heard the child crying for help. "Dad, help me."
Li San was terrified to the extreme and looked at his mobile phone again. It really shows his son's name.

Don't hang up, pay the ransom immediately, or else. ...
The "kidnapper" threatened Li San on the phone, telling him to go on and not hang up, or he would kill the ticket. Because the caller ID was his son's name, and he heard the crying of his suspected son, Li San, who was frightened, mistakenly thought it was true and listened to the words of the "kidnapper".

The "kidnappers" demanded ransom many times and became suspicious. He didn't know he was cheated until he contacted his son and classmates.
"The kidnapper asked me to pay a ransom of 500,000 yuan, but my card only had 200,000 yuan, and I was not allowed to hang up and contact others to raise money," Li San said. After bargaining with the kidnappers, the kidnappers finally agreed to release the 200 thousand yuan. For the safety of the children, Li transferred this 200,000 yuan to the other party's account through online banking. I thought this was the end of the matter, but I didn't expect the "kidnapper" to go back on his word after receiving the money and pay another 654.38+10,000 yuan to let him go.
At this moment, Li San's friend happened to pass by his office. Because Li San didn't hang up and didn't dare to tell his friend that his son was kidnapped, he borrowed 654.38 million yuan from his friend on the grounds of urgent need and transferred it to the "kidnapper". After receiving the money for the second time, the "kidnapper" repented again and demanded an additional ransom of 65,438+10,000.
The so-called outsider sees clearly, and Li San's friends saw the clue and suspected fraud. Privately, I know that Li San's son is studying in the United States and living with a classmate from China, so he contacted Li Lin on his own phone. After the connection, it turned out that Li Lin had been resting in the room, only to find that he had been cheated.
