According to incomplete statistics, in the past three months, the gang has deceived more than 200 times, and the initial verification of the amount involved exceeds 120,000 yuan. The amount seems not high, but the social harm is not small.

The reporter learned that this is a professional criminal gang that flows in many cities such as Dongguan, Shenzhen, Huizhou and other cities. Due to the small amount involved in the case, and the middle -aged and elderly people are easily coaxed by fraud, this gang has committed crimes in a row and has not been reported. Until June 2022, the Guangming Police received the clue of the gang after receiving the case. With the cooperation of the Dongguan police, Guangming Police eventually captured all 25 people.

Market fortune -telling leads out of fraud gangs

On June 12, 2022, the Malain Police Station of the Guangming Branch of the Shenzhen Public Security Bureau received an alarm of the citizen that she was deceived 900 yuan in the Guangming market. The lady said that at that time, she saw a hand -phase stall in the market very lively. After the fortune -telling, she paid the master to ask the master to help "disaster" under the guidance of the other party. Subsequently, the lady suspected that there was a "care" on the fortune -telling stall, and she encountered fraud, so she decided to call the police.

Later, after the control of the Guangming Police, under the cooperation of the Dongguan police, the 25 members of the gang were captured.

Disorders are not highly harmful

After arrested all the suspects, the "development" of this gang gradually became clear: a few years ago, the gang's leader met a fortune teller near a town in Dongguan, and then learned some superficial fortune -telling knowledge from the other party. After entering the industry, the gang's head found that fortune -telling was very easy to make money, so he began to try to help the villagers who worked nearby to help, and set up a stall to see the phase.

The more money is earned, the gang's courage is getting bigger and bigger. Their fraud method has gradually evolved from simple fortune telling. At the same time, members of the gang have also increased. From part -time, to cheating, the biggest "business", they cheated more than 2,000 yuan from an old man.

According to the gang's payment account for nearly three months, the police's inspection confirmed that the amount involved in the case exceeded 120,000 yuan, and the number of victims who was deceived reached more than 200. And these are only available based on transfer records.

The case is currently under further trial.

Preventing pension fraud, children cannot be absent

"Many deceived elderly people are unwilling to believe that they are deceived." Li Hanjin, the police handling the case, said that some elderly people did not think that the fortune -telling master was a liar, but the police on the phone was a scammer. Find the house to explain in person, they suddenly realized.

"The lack of communication between the elderly and the children has given the scammers the opportunity to take advantage of it." Li Hanjin told reporters that most of the old people who were deceived came from outside and were taken over by their children to help take care of their grandchildren. During the process of communicating with the victims, he found that the children of many elderly people did not know what their parents were cheated at all. "If the children are willing to spend more time to communicate with their parents and let them understand their lives, they can largely avoid their parents to produce these anxiety and fear." Li Hanjin said.
