Investing in 'virtual currency' but conducting cash transactions offline, Dongying police successfully saved citizens 530,000

Ms. Guo from Dongying specially presented a banner inscribed with 'Thunder Strike, Quick Case Resolution, Anti-Fraud Vanguard Saves the People from Loss' to the Dongying Economic and Technological Development Zone Public Security Bureau Mingyue Police Station to express her gratitude.

It is understood that Ms. Guo added a stranger on a social platform, who claimed to be an investment customer service for a certain 'virtual currency' platform, and lured Ms. Guo into investing. After receiving Ms. Guo's confirmation to invest, the stranger guided her to download the 'Certain Easy' APP for operations.

The stranger committed fraud against Ms. Guo by arranging for a specific person to exchange cash only through offline cash transactions and agreed on a time with Ms. Guo. On the agreed day, Ms. Guo handed over 530,000 cash to a person named Ji who came to collect the cash. During the transaction, Ms. Guo's friend felt something was wrong and advised her against it, leading both parties to report to the police. After receiving the report, the Mingyue Police Station's officers quickly launched an investigation.

Upon investigation, it was found that Ji had met his 'upline' through a short video platform, where the latter posted a part-time job advertisement claiming that one could earn 200 yuan as a reward for simply helping to collect cash. Tempted by this 'high-paying part-time job', Ji decided to join in, and the stranger provided him with a social account specifically for 'work'.

Currently, Ji is suspected of providing specific support and assistance for others to commit telecommunications network fraud. When caught by the public security organs, he had not yet received the reward. According to Articles 25 and 42 of the Anti-Telecommunications Network Fraud Law of the People's Republic of China, he was administratively fined 500 yuan by the public security organs.
