Man scammed out of 1.1 million during an offline cash exchange!
Mr. Luo from Longyan had a pile of "Tether" and wanted to exchange it for real cash. Through a friend's introduction, he found Mr. Su from Quanzhou, and the two agreed to meet for the transaction in a residential area in Haicang.
On the day of the transaction, Mr. Luo brought three friends and rushed from Longyan to the agreed location. As soon as he met Mr. Su and Mr. Wu, both sides began discussing how to proceed with the exchange. After some testing, Mr. Luo saw Mr. Su take out 1.1 million in cash, and he promptly transferred over 170,000 Tether to Mr. Su's account.
Just as Mr. Luo finished counting the cash and had taken a screenshot of the transfer, Mr. Su said the internet was bad and he hadn’t received the coins. Then, taking advantage of Mr. Luo’s distraction, he grabbed the cash and ran away.
Mr. Luo quickly reported to the police, and upon hearing this, the Haicang police realized this was serious, immediately forming a special task force to investigate. After several days and nights of hard work, they discovered a large and well-organized criminal gang.
It turned out that this gang was distributed across seven counties in southern Fujian and Xiamen. The police immediately dispatched over 60 officers, forming 15 arrest teams to act separately. After intense investigation and visits, they finally figured out where the gang members were hiding.
On the morning of February 8th at 6 AM, all 15 arrest teams struck simultaneously at seven locations, capturing all 15 suspects led by Mr. Su, and seizing six vehicles, dozens of mobile phones, computers, and other tools used in the crime.
This incident reminds us that offline transactions require extreme caution; one careless move could lead to losing everything.
