00:00:36According to netizens, a woman was defrauded of 80,000 yuan
00:00:38.
00:00:44Why did a short video make him fall into a trap
00:00:47again?
00:00:56A gambling website led to a criminal group hidden overseas.
00:02:30It is a profession that legally protects the legitimate rights and interests of the parties, so how can it be involved
00:02:33in fraud? To uncover this mystery, let's start with Ms. Zhou's
00:02:37first experience of being defrauded
00:02:40. Ms. Zhou works as a clerk in a company
00:02:44in Zhenjiang, Jiangsu. A few years ago, one of his online friends found him
00:02:48and said that he was investing in a shopping website project. After successful operation, the profit
00:02:52would be very considerable. At present, it is in the preparation stage, and he hopes that Ms. Zhou
00:02:55can invest in shares, and there will be high dividends
00:02:59in the future.
00:04:49The police had difficulty verifying his true identity at the time. The investigation of the case was therefore at a stalemate , and Ms. Zhou's loss of 80,000 yuan
00:04:53could not be recovered temporarily . I was still too naive
00:04:57.
00:06:47Ms. , after their investigation, the 80,000 yuan she was defrauded of that year had been transferred by the criminal suspect and finally flowed into a gambling online platform
00:06:50, and it was difficult to recover the money . However, they had a
00:06:54way to help her recover her losses , that is, they found that
00:06:58the gambling website is still operating normally. Their technical
00:07:02department can change the betting odds of the gambling website through background operations
00:07:06, which means that Ms. Zhou will surely win after betting
00:07:10as long as she bets according to the requirements
00:07:54. Under the guidance of that technician, Ms. Zhou registered an account on that gambling website and bound her bank card. To be on the safe side,
00:07:58she only recharged 100 yuan at first . Unexpectedly, after the lottery, the balance
00:08:02in her account became 115 yuan, earning
00:08:0515 yuan
00:08:06.
00:08:12Then.
00:08:34This time, Ms. Zhou completely let down her guard, and she was even a little excited, forgetting the risks. She calculated that if she invested a little more, it wouldn't take long for her to earn back the 80,000 yuan she lost. In the next two days, she followed the other party's
00:08:38guidance and invested 999 yuan in two separate transactions
00:09:01. Hearing this, Ms. Zhou suddenly realized that she might have been defrauded again. After Ms. Zhou
00:09:04realized she was defrauded, she contacted Lawyer Li and the technician again, asking
00:09:08for a refund, but the two never responded to her again. Subsequently
00:09:12, that gambling website also became inaccessible . She had no choice but to
00:09:16report the crime again . They took advantage of our
00:09:20eagerness to recover losses .
00:09:22This mentality.
00:09:32Ms. Zhou was previously defrauded of 80,000 yuan by someone she met online, and she wanted to contact
00:09:36the so-called Lawyer Li in the short video to help her recover her losses
00:09:40. Unexpectedly, she fell into
00:10:12. In September 2023, Mr. Wang trusted a netizen's suggestion and invested
00:10:16in an agricultural project, investing more than 400,000 yuan. As a result,
00:10:20after the money was invested, the project disappeared, and the netizen
00:10:24also disappeared. More than 400,000 yuan was lost. He realized
00:10:28he was defrauded and reported the crime. The police investigated and confirmed that this was a case
00:10:31of telecom network fraud. It was difficult to solve the case in the short term, and Mr. Wang's losses
00:10:35were difficult to recover . He asked me to register
00:10:39the situation .
00:10:43More than a year passed, and Mr. Wang still did not receive news of the case being solved
00:10:47. And the more than 400,000 yuan he was defrauded of made him always
00:10:50unable to let go. One day in October 2024, Mr. Wang was brushing
00:11:32. They can modify the betting odds to ensure that Mr. Wang wins after betting and help him recover
00:11:36his losses. Under the opponent's instigation, Mr. Wang
00:11:39recharged more than 200,000 yuan . When he won nearly a million yuan
00:11:43on the account and wanted to withdraw cash , the other party said that he had to pay
00:11:47more than 40,000 yuan in taxes before he could. This made him feel
00:11:51that something was wrong. My account balance
00:11:55has already
00:11:56reached 1 million.
00:11:59Then the computer person on that side said, "You have to pay taxes, everyone has to pay taxes. If you don't pay, you can't withdraw." I thought, "This is not
00:12:09what my teacher told me. He told me to put my own money in and mess around with it. I feel like this is not right.
00:12:17At this time, Wang had a bad premonition. He did not pay the so-called tax
00:12:23. Sure enough, a few days later, the gambling website
00:12:55encountered difficulties, and its true identity was difficult to ascertain for a while
00:12:59. However, the victims all mentioned that the criminal suspects had asked them
00:13:03to log in to a gambling online platform . Although this platform is currently
00:13:07inaccessible, through technical analysis, the case handlers
00:13:10successfully tracked and located the server behind the platform, and
00:13:14extracted a large number of data files
00:13:18from the server through technical means
00:13:21. Among the remotely extracted data files, there were records of fraudsters and victims
00:15:37. He and others formed a group, and Wu was the leader of the group
00:15:41. The identities of the group members were identified, but because the group
00:15:45was hiding overseas, it was impossible to arrest them immediately. Therefore
00:15:49, the case handlers listed Wu and Li and other group members
00:15:53as fugitives and put them on the wanted list
00:15:56. In May 2025, the case handlers received a tip that a member of the fraud group
00:16:00, Li, would arrive in Xiamen, Fujian by plane from overseas
00:16:04. The case handlers immediately dispatched people to Xiamen. Finally, with the cooperation of the Xiamen police
00:16:08, Li was arrested as soon as he landed
00:16:11. So how did their group operate
00:16:15? Why did they impersonate a lawyer to commit secondary fraud
00:16:19against the victims? The case handlers interrogated Li. Facing the interrogation
00:16:23, Li initially did not admit that he had committed telecom network fraud
00:16:26overseas
00:16:28.
00:16:36criminal behavior. There was no fraud, he himself thought he was
00:16:40abroad with his girlfriend running a beauty salon, helping out in the shop
00:16:44, and he always denied that he was involved in this telecom network fraud
00:16:48. The suspect fell into the net, what secrets will he
00:16:51reveal
00:16:52?
00:16:58They committed fraud, and what kind of punishment will they face
00:17:01? The scam of recovering losses, Today's Talk
00:17:05is now broadcasting . Subsequently
00:17:08, the case handlers extracted Li's phone information and recovered a large number
00:17:12of deleted chat records through technical means
00:17:16. These records clearly showed Li's daily communication
00:17:20with group members, including the statistical reconciliation of fraudulent funds
00:17:24and the payment of salaries and commissions . The case handlers
00:17:28presented the recovered phone data along with other evidence
00:17:31obtained earlier to Li . In front of the evidence
00:17:35, Li's psychological defense gradually loosened
00:17:38. He finally admitted to participating in telecom network fraud
00:17:41overseas . In 2024
00:17:44. Later , I met Brother Wu
00:17:57. In 2022, he went abroad to operate a mobile phone store
00:18:01. In his daily business, he met Wu, who was the leader of their group
00:18:05. In early 2024
00:19:22, they found someone to forge the business license of a law firm and a lawyer's professional certificate , but in order to confuse the victims
00:19:26, they used real law firm names and lawyer names, so
00:19:30that even if the victims searched online, it would be difficult to find
00:19:33any flaws .
00:19:58The third step is to guide the victims to deposit and bet on the designated gambling online platform
00:20:01, claiming that by modifying the odds , funds can be recovered
00:20:05. Finally, they will fabricate various
00:20:58. After understanding the modus operandi and methods of this criminal group, the case handlers intensified their pursuit of the group. Through multiple deployments, in August 2025, the case handlers
00:21:01learned that another member of the group , He, was hiding
00:21:05in Wenzhou, Zhejiang . The case handlers arrested
00:21:09He. At that time, I was sleeping at the company
00:21:11.
00:21:19I said: He worked at a technology company
00:21:23when the incident occurred. In early 2024, he met Li
00:21:27online through a friend's introduction, who was the group member arrested earlier
00:21:30. Li claimed to have a gambling online platform that required technicians
00:21:34to frequently change the website's domain name and pay for it. This
00:21:38was not difficult for He, who was engaged in related work , so he agreed
00:21:42.
00:21:45This gambling website . I
00:21:48couldn't access the other parts
00:21:50.
00:21:53We weren't together. And they just asked me
00:21:57to change that, uh , domain name of the website. If the domain name didn't work
00:22:01and I couldn't get in, they asked me to help them change it. That's how it was. He
00:22:05confessed. Initially, he thought it was just an illegal gambling website
00:22:08and didn't realize it was involved in telecom network fraud
00:22:12. To earn some extra money, he didn't pay much attention. After that
00:22:16, every once in a while, when that gambling website was reported by domestic regulatory authorities
00:22:39, he immediately stopped and hid, but the case handlers still found
00:22:43him and arrested him. Finally, He was charged
00:22:47with the crime of assisting information network criminal activities
00:23:34. The charge was established. Li played a major role in the joint crime and was the principal offender, and should be punished for all the crimes he participated in or organized and directed . Given that Li voluntarily
00:23:37pleaded guilty and actively returned the stolen goods, he can be punished
00:23:41leniently according to law. Our court believes that the defendant Li
00:23:44conspired with others overseas with the intention of illegal possession
00:23:48.
00:23:56He defrauded others of property, and the amount was particularly huge, constituting the crime of fraud. At the same time, the defendant Li had honest confessions and other positive circumstances
00:24:00, and was re-sentenced according to law . Finally, our court
00:24:04sentenced Li to 11 years in prison for the crime of fraud and fined
00:24:08him 300,000 yuan. Currently , the judgment in this case has taken
00:24:12effect. The case of criminal suspect He suspected of assisting information network criminal
00:24:16activities is still under trial, and the criminal group involved .
00:24:50The situation of being defrauded is actually related to a certain mentality of his, which is
00:24:53thinking whether I can recover the money I was defrauded of for the first time
00:24:57. In fact, many victims of cases have such
00:25:01a mentality. After being defrauded , on the one hand, they feel
00:25:05guilty and remorseful, wondering if I could have been a little more careful
00:25:09at that time. On the other hand , they wonder if I can find a way
00:25:13to recover the money that was defrauded through
00:25:16some means.
00:25:20precisely saw the mentality of the victims, and Mr. Fan
00:25:23was also very cunning. First, he let the victims test the waters, saying that you can try
00:25:27to deposit 100 yuan. As a result , the victims really received
00:25:31115 yuan, which indeed recovered some of the money
00:25:35. So the victims relaxed their vigilance even more , and finally
00:25:39fell into the trap set by the criminal
00:25:42, resulting in the second fraud . Teacher Qin, I noticed that the court
00:25:46finally ruled that Li Meng committed fraud. And another person
00:26:32played the role of helping the fraud group with technical
00:26:36setup, which means providing technical support. The content of this technical
00:26:40support was to adjust the domain name of a gambling
00:26:44website. He also knew that the nature of this website was illegal
00:26:47, but he did not know that the website was specifically used for
00:26:51telecom fraud activities . Therefore, He's subjective
00:26:55cognition of this matter should be a kind of generalized knowledge
00:26:59, not specific knowledge . If he knew that this case
00:27:03or the website behind it involved
00:27:06fraud, then if it became specific knowledge, he might also
00:27:10constitute an accomplice to the crime of fraud . Today's program shows us that the methods of telecom
00:27:14network fraud are constantly changing , and criminals even use
00:27:18the victims' eagerness to recover losses to commit secondary fraud
00:27:22. But no matter how the tricks change, the judiciary's crackdown on fraud
00:27:26crimes has never slackened , and the law's extension
00:27:29to criminals has never been weak. At the same time
00:27:33, self-prevention is always the best way to mitigate losses. If you raise your vigilance by one point
00:27:37, fraudsters will have one less opportunity to succeed. Only through the concerted efforts
00:27:41of all parties can telecom network fraud be eliminated
00:27:45. Thank you for watching today's program, and thank you, Teacher Qin
00:27:49, for participating in our discussion. You are welcome to continue to follow CCTV General Channel for other content
00:27:52that will be broadcast next. Goodbye
