Reporter Zhang Guotong correspondent Zhang Qiuyang

"High -profile computer" sells at a low price, is it really dropped in the sky? Recently, the criminal police detachment of the Jinan Public Security Bureau cracked the use of cheap accessories to assemble computers, and used a series of cases of selling high prices to implement fraud. Six suspects were arrested, 54 inferior computers were seized, 34 cases were cracked, and the amount involved was 100,000. Yu Yuan.

"High -profile computer" sells at low prices

The 22 -year -old Xiao Li is a college student at school. In May last year, he was in an intern in a company in Jinan. He urgently needed to buy a cost -effective computer. Although the new computer was good, the relatively high price made Xiao Li, who was shy in the pocket, so he aimed at the second -hand computer. At this moment, an advertisement posted in the elevator in the community attracted his attention.

"Due to the poor operation of the company, there are two sets of high -profile 90 % new computers at low prices, 16G of memory, 480g of solid -state hard disks, and 6G independent graphics cards." Looking at the computer configuration on the advertisement, Xiao Li wants to buy a brand new one. More than 7,000 yuan. After thinking about it, Xiao Li immediately dialed the phone on the advertisement. However, after the inquiry, the other party said that the computer configuration was said, but the price was only 3,000 yuan. Not only that, the other party can "deliver the goods to the door" and pay the payment after "inspecting the goods in person". If there is a problem in the subsequent use process, you can also "refund".

How can such a good thing fall next to it? As a result, Xiao Li immediately agreed with the other party to meet the time of the deal, waiting for the other party to deliver the goods.

In the face -to -face inspection, the result was deceived

Soon, the seller carried the computer and came to Xiao Li's residence in the face of the inspection. Xiao Li found that although the appearance of this computer is not like the "90 % new" that the seller said, after turning on the power, use the "certain master" software that comes with the computer to view the hardware information. The "high -match" computer was written as on.

As a often used computer, Xiao Li naturally did not obey the results of the "Master" software. When he was hesitant to transfer money, the seller began to urge Xiao Li to complete the payment, and said that "there are still many people waiting in line to buy", panicked, panic, panic, panic, panic, panic, panic, panic, panic, panic, panic, panic, panic, panic. Small and small Li quickly completed the transfer and bought this "high -profile computer".

However, when Xiao Li re -installed the system to reinstall the system, it was found that the "16G memory, 480G solid -state hard disk, 6G independent graphics card" displayed in the "Master" software are basically false. And the graphics card is not an independent graphics at all, and other configurations are also very low.

The actual situation of the computer is far from the "high match" claimed by the seller. At this time, Xiao Li realized that he knew he was fooled, so he quickly contacted the seller, but the other party had gone black long ago.

Crime crimes many times a year

Although the suspect's suspect adopted a face -to -face transaction method, according to the information provided by Xiao Li, the suspect was very cunning when he committed the crime. Even after a period of time, the suspect stopped the WeChat and mobile phone numbers, which undoubtedly brought great difficulty to detecting cases in the public security organs.

In order to completely destroy this fraud gang, the three brigades of the Criminal Police Detachment of the Jinan Public Security Bureau set up a task force to start in -depth sorting out similar police conditions in the city.

Police found that starting in May last year, the city's fake computer configuration fraud police situation suddenly increased, and the incident area included high -tech, city, Lixia, Licheng, Tianqiao, Huaiyin and other jurisdictions. The sale of high -profile computer advertisements in other places claims that the company bankruptcy and handle office computers ultra -low -priced.

After the victim called the advertisement call, it agreed to trade in person in person, and was discovered to be deceived during the use of the computer during the use of the computer. Some victims lacked corresponding computer knowledge, which caused some cases to be defined as transaction disputes. In addition, the suspects had committed crimes, which was very cunning, which caused this gang to have never been completely beaten.

Through the 6 -person gang

According to the clues provided by some victims, the police of the three brigades of the Criminal Police Detachment of the Jinan Public Security Bureau were finally determined that the gang involved six criminal suspects involved in the case of videos and transfer records.

It is reported that when the criminal gang committed the crime, two to three people were in charge. Among them, one person answered the phone to get the job, and after the price, the transaction location, and the time, the two came to the door to deliver the goods. Disciplinary payment. After the victim was discovered, the criminal gang pulled the victim and no longer contacted.

After determining the identity of the criminal suspect, the police of the task force set off in Guangxi, Zhejiang and other places in July this year. After more than 20 days, they fought continuously, and finally arrested all six people including Zhang and Qin. After interrogation, the suspect confessed to the criminal facts of the fraud in Jinan. At present, there have been 26 successful police conditions, and the amount involved in the case is more than 90,000 yuan. The case is now under further expansion of the Municipal Sub -branch.

Fraud is a way to make a living

Zhang, 37, is the core figure of this scam gang. In early 2021, when Zhang worked in his hometown in Guangxi, he accidentally learned from the worker that someone could "make money" by selling a computer at high prices, so he took the initiative to get to Qin A certain contact information.

After a wine and meat entertainment, Qin promised to help Zhang to assemble cheap computers and help him install the false "a master" software to achieve the effect of exaggerating the hardware configuration by modifying the software parameters.

After that, Zhang purchased the host from Qin at the price of 900 yuan per host, and spent more than 100 yuan to purchase inferior display, power cord, mouse, keyboard and other accessories from the technology market or second -hand website. More than 1100 yuan computers, because the configuration is too low, the computer performance is not even as good as a smartphone. In the advertisement released by Zhang, these low -priced and inferior assembly computers turned into high -profile computers worth 7,000 to 8,000 yuan.

In order to make the scam more authentic, Zhang even forged the purchase invoice and the official seal of the unit, only to make the victim more believe that he really had to deal with the computer at a low price because of the "company failure". When asked if he knew the price of the computer configured on the advertisement he posted, Zhang bluntly said that the second -hand computer with the same configuration required at least four or five thousand yuan, and he sold 3,000 yuan for "better selling."

According to Zhang's confession, he started more than 100 crimes in Jinan, Sichuan, Hunan, Jilin and other countries since May 2021. For more than a year, more than 300,000 yuan in illegal and criminal income. I don't want to work to make money anymore.

Low -priced computer "customize on demand"

Qin, who provides a cheap assembly computer for Zhang, is 28 years old and has been engaged in a second -hand computer business since 2020. At first, Qin only reached and sold through the purchase of second -hand computer bulk, and only earned the assembly cost, and the profit was small. It wasn't until a client asked if he could modify the hardware parameters through the "Master" software that Qin learned that he could achieve the purpose of fictional hardware parameters by purchasing the false "master" software.

In order to make his fake high -profile computers more realistic, Qin also made a computer hardware brand sticker, which was posted on the graphics card, hard disk, and memory bar. Even if the buyer opened the chassis, he would see the counterfeit "brand" hardware. Qin will even provide false sales notes in accordance with customer requirements, to prove his "high player" and "genuine cargo".

According to Qin's confession, I acquire a computer host from the second-hand market for cheap and low-equipped hardware. The cost is only about 570 yuan, while the outside is sold at a price ranging from 850-900 yuan. Each can earn about 300 yuan profit. Beginning in November 2020, Qin had sold more than 100 false high -end computers to "customers" across the country for more than a year, illegally profitable for more than 30,000 yuan.

The big trap behind the small cheap

At present, the six criminal suspects involved in the case have been adopted by the Municipal Branch of the Municipal Bureau, and the case is under further investigation.

According to the police handling police, in recent years, such types of cases have appeared in many places across the country, but it is rare in Jinan. At the same time as this time, the criminal gang has also been used to remind the general public to strengthen prevention.

The police said that seeing it is not necessarily true. Some computer evaluation software can be changed through the configuration parameters displayed by technical changes. If it is a private transaction, it is best to reinstall the system or check out on the spot.

In addition, even if there is no problem in the appearance, many second -hand computers, after using it for a period of time, the motherboard's "dark disease" such as fever, running stuck, and screen flowers will appear one after another. It is best to find a regular store to buy a second -hand computer, so that merchants can provide regular invoices, receipts and warranty services, and to protect their rights in time.
