"Exquisite gifts", "special health care products", "peers appear to appear" ... Under the strong recommendation of scammers, health products with only tens of yuan are sold at a price of about 2,000 yuan. On June 13, a reporter from the Shanxi Evening News learned from the Procuratorate of Taiyuan Yingze District that the procuratorate successfully handled a health care product fraud case. The gang fraudulently fraudulently scored a total of more than 130,000 yuan.

The cost of 200 yuan for health products is only tens of yuan

One day in June 2019, Mr. Li, 80 in Taiyuan City, received a strange call. The other party claimed to be a well -known pharmacy staff member who called to notify him to receive gifts in the pharmacy.

"The other party said that there were gifts for free, and it also provided a car to pick up the service. We felt quite suitable." Mr. Li said that shortly after hanging up the phone, he and his wife took the car to the pharmacy. There, they saw many elderly people, and everyone gathered together to chat. When Mr. Li took the gift to go home, an old lady of the same age came over and talked with their old couple.

"This pharmacy has a health product, which is specially provided. We have a good effect when we have eaten this year ..." The old lady introduced that she and her husband have eaten special health care products, cerebral infarction, cardiovascular disease and other symptoms All "medicine to disease". As soon as Mr. Li heard it, he was excited and immediately found the staff and said that he wanted to buy a box of special health products. However, what disappointed him was that the other party said that this health product was not retail and could only be sold throughout the box.

"We can buy a box and divide it again." Just as Mr. Li hesitated, the old lady stepped forward again. Subsequently, Mr. Li spent more than 8,000 yuan, which was divided into 4 boxes of "special health care products". However, after eating special health products for a while, Mr. Li found that his physical condition did not improve. When he was about to come to the door to discuss the statement, a bad news came: The company was investigated for suspected fraud, and eight people, including the company's person in charge, had been transferred to the procuratorate for review and prosecution. After investigation, in February 2019, the defendant Gao Mou established a technology company to recruit 7 people including Sun and the old lady as a salesperson and pill.

Subsequently, Gao and others cheated some elderly people to the company on the grounds of receiving gifts, and then the pupils came forward to fictitiously cure the curative effect. Sale of about 2000 yuan. After investigation, the gang frauded more than 30 elderly people with a total of 130,000 yuan. Recently, eight defendants such as Gao Mou and Sun Mou were sentenced to six years in prison for six months to three years in prison for prison for fraud.

At present, all the losses of more than 30 victims have been recovered.

There are 3 reasons for the old man "not listening to persuasion"

"There is a kind of despair that children repeatedly persuaded, but they still can't stop the elderly believe in the liar." The prosecutor said that in such health products fraud cases, many of the children of the victims were before the incident, and found some old people at home in the family at home. "abnormal". But I have to admit that the "brainwashing" skills of the liar are really extraordinary.

Faced with the various scams, why is the elderly in the family "not listening to persuasion"? In this regard, the procuratorial organs believe that there are the following reasons.

Reason 1: Maintain your own image.

First of all, most elderly people persuade the juniors with instinctual "resistance": "I have more salt than you eat, how can you teach me to do things."

When children try to tell the elderly to be deceived, some problems must be involved. For example: What did they say to you? How did you agree to transfer? Faced with these issues, even if the old man could not refute his children, his heart was still conflicting with this way of asking for self -derogation. At this moment, even if he had begun to doubt the liar, the psychological defense mechanism would let him kill him and did not admit that he was deceived. This behavior is also defending your choice. Only in this way can you maintain your savvy image.

Reason two: Sinking costs

Everyone is unfamiliar with the word "sinking cost". It refers to the costs that have been paid and cannot be recovered, including time, money, and energy. In common scams, this is a means of "control" the victims. When the old man finds that he is deceived, he often invested some funds. At this time, if they listen to persuasion, the early investment will be completely "drifted". Because they are unwilling and unwilling to give up, many people will tend to continue to pay, and eventually lose more.

Reason three: rigid thinking

The routines of scammers are constantly upgrading, and the elderly who cannot keep up with the rhythm of cognition and fraud are easy to fall into the trap. In many scams, the scammers treat the elderly and are more relatives than their biological children, and the degenerative elderly people are very easy to enter the misunderstanding of "engraving the boat", and eventually appear that "he is good to me, so the health products he introduced are also good". Sometimes, the gap between the elderly and the family is derived from the continuous provocation of the scammers. For example, "Your child is reluctant to money, your body is good, they do not care ..."

Four "cheats" to save the elderly at home

After analyzing the above reasons, the next thing is how to save the elderly from the scammers. Here, the prosecutor and the anti -fraud police also summarized some children's "savings" of the old man at home in a special period.

Cheats one: Save Wei Zhao around Wei

Many elderly people are attracted by scammers because they are usually boring, so they must learn to divert the attention of the elderly. For example, taking the elderly to dance the square dance, I have no time to be deceived when I have a hobby. You can also take the elderly out to travel, and the rationality of people in a relaxed environment is easier to return. Cheats 2: Tap side by side

The scammers like to tell stories, and we can also tell. There is nothing more likely to touch than reality. You can tell the tragic story of some friends, colleagues, and other elderly people around you. The more real and better the details, the better, and remind your elderly on the side.

Cheats three: Dyelability

Although the old man does not like to listen, the expression of authoritative and experts is good for them. When you see the analysis of the authoritative media's analysis of scams, send it directly to the family. If they want to invest in wealth management, they will find the point of view of this field to listen to them.

Cheats 4: Salary at the bottom of the kettle

While ensuring the daily consumption of the elderly, children's "large consumption" of the elderly at home can be more "concerned". The clever woman is difficult to cook without rice. The elderly have no money in their hands. The possibility of being cheated is naturally greatly reduced. The scammers see that there is no "oil and water" on the old man to fish, and slowly give up this goal.

In addition, the majority of citizens must remember to prevent the most effective "cheats" that prevent the elderly from falling into the scam, which is the company of children! Accompany the elderly in the family, and encourage them to socialize more, and contact the society with multiple channels. Do not let them be abandoned by the times, so many scams will be seen by them at a glance! Shanxi Evening News reporter Xin Ge
