"Uncle, aunt, hello! Our company specializes in commemorating collectibles such as coins, calligraphy and painting. The collection of collectibles is very large. You can buy it from here and wait for the appreciation. You sell high prices. "Earlier, the salesperson of a art company in Jinan City, Shandong Province was very enthusiastic about selling to the elderly on the phone. It is unknown to the huge scam behind such a call. On March 8 this year, Liu and Liu, who were prosecuted by the Procuratorate of the Lishe District Procuratorate of Jinan City, were sentenced to first trial of the crime of fraud. Wait, each fined 100,000 yuan to 30,000 yuan. After the first trial was sentenced, the defendants Liu and Zhao appealed. Recently, the Jinan Intermediate Court ruled to reject the appeal and maintain the original sentence in accordance with the law.

Buy collections at low prices, fictional appreciation space

39 -year -old Zhao is a salesman of a art company in Jinan. During his work, he saw that high -priced collection of high -priced after -sales profit was very large and very profitable, and he was tempted. "At that time, I had only seven or 80,000 in my hands. It was not enough to set up a company. I contacted the original colleagues Liu and Wang. The three of us decided to set up a company to do it by themselves." Zhao said.

In order to make customers believe in the company's strength and rest assured consumption, the three of them decided to set up the company in Quancheng Road, Lixia District. "We feel that the location is good, and the office building is high -end, which can convince customers." Zhao explained. They called a few old colleagues from the original company and recruited some newcomers to train with the drive of the old employees. Subsequently, they went to a certain place for the postal coin card market to buy "Panda Coins", "Wealth God Banknotes", "Four Concerns of Corner Coins" and calligraphy and painting. The art company officially opened.

"We bought some local people's phone numbers from the Internet, and then arranged the salesperson to call, saying that there were gifts for gifts, and invited customers to go to the company to learn about it. Later, we came to the company that were basically the elderly." Zhao explained.

After coming to the company, the company's sales staff will talk to these elderly people first, enhance and cultivate feelings, and then introduce the value of these collections from the perspective of "professional", and understand their salary income, family address, family address, family address , Family personnel, etc. The company has a special person to infer the purchasing power of this customer from these materials, and screen out the purchasing power and easily deceived customers as the target of the crime.

After selecting the target of the crime, the sales staff gave one -to -one explanations to these customers in accordance with the training talk, promoted the promotion of the appreciation of the collection to customers, and promised to appreciate in the future. Let customers make a difference in profitability. Many elderly people listened to their propaganda and believed that they were true, and they bought their products one after another. The company's sales staff will continue to call the elderly to visit the elderly. It is recommended that the appreciation space is greater, and various activities will organize various activities to attract the elderly to increase trust.

"Cooperative purchase" to dispel doubts and deceive trust

Some elderly people have awareness of prevention and will not buy it directly. "In this case, our sales staff will say that they want to buy collectibles with customers during the sales process. There are special funds to do this. "Liu explained.

Sales personnel to sell in this way will make these elderly people feel that since the sales staff also buy collectibles, they will believe that the collectibles can be appreciated and will agree to buy. When the elderly go to the company to ask when the collectibles they buy can be sold, the sales staff will find various reasons to obscure, and continue to sell other collectibles to them, and even threaten these elderly people. Not responsible for helping to resold the previously purchased collection.

This is how Aunt Zheng was deceived. In 2018, she received a call from the sales staff of the company and invited her to receive a free gift. After she went, she was trapped. After purchasing the first "Panda Coin" collection, Aunt Zheng began to patronize the company often. The staff would recommend different collectibles each time, and emphasized that the appreciation space is large, the longer the collection time, the more valuable. In order to convince Aunt Zheng, they also staged a "partner purchase" drama during them. In this way, Auntie Zheng believed that he had purchased 7 sets of "God of Wealth" under the joint force of the sales staff.

In the following period of time, Aunt Zheng successively purchased collectibles such as the "Twenty -eight Sports of Wealth" and "World Dahe", and invested more than 600,000 yuan. "Later, the sales staff asked me to buy 'Qinyuan Chunxue' again. I don't want to invest anymore. They told me that many people bought the collectibles have been sold. If I don’t buy 'Qinyuan Chunxue', they will not help them help I sell it. "Liu explained:" 'Qinyuan Chunxue' is a painting company that promotes the company's contact, basically half of them are sold and half -free, a cost price is less than 500 yuan, and we can send it a few more. We sell it to customers. 4980 yuan. "

In this way, Aunt Zheng bought 12 sets of "Qinyuan Chunxue", which cost nearly 60,000 yuan. Unconsciously, Aunt Zheng hid her family to use 700,000 yuan in pension money. She hoped to earn a few collectibles to earn back living expenses, but the other party always trusted with various reasons.

In Jinan, as many as dozens of elderly people who have fallen into the company's collection scam like Aunt Zheng.
