On October 17, the Xinshi Police Station of Jing Shan City received a report from resident Mr. Li, stating that he had been defrauded of 220,000 yuan in cash during a virtual currency transaction with others on Yibu Walking Street. After receiving the report, the investigating team promptly commenced their investigation.
It is understood that Mr. Li met the suspect Mr. Zhang through a friend, who claimed to have a channel for exchanging 'U coins' and could exchange cash for profit. Initially, Mr. Li invested several tens of thousands of yuan with skepticism and received several thousand yuan in returns.
On October 17, Mr. Li contacted Mr. Zhang again, wishing to purchase more virtual currency. After negotiating details via WeChat, they agreed to meet for an offline transaction. That afternoon, Mr. Li and a friend brought 220,000 yuan in cash to a designated hotel. After meeting, Mr. Li handed the 220,000 yuan in cash to Mr. Zhang. Mr. Zhang led the way, claiming to take Mr. Li to a room to conduct online currency transfer operations using a computer.
They then arrived at the entrance of an apartment room. Mr. Zhang knocked, but no one answered, so he claimed he would go upstairs to find someone and asked the two to wait downstairs for news. After several hours of waiting, Mr. Li went upstairs only to find that Mr. Zhang had vanished. Feeling something was wrong, Mr. Li reported to the Xinshi Police Station. In the following days, Mr. Li sent multiple WeChat messages to Mr. Zhang, inquired with friends about Mr. Zhang's whereabouts, and asked the apartment owner for information about Mr. Zhang, but was unable to establish contact.
The investigating police successfully identified the suspect Mr. Zhang through on-site visits, reviewing surveillance footage, and conducting comprehensive assessments. Subsequently, they traveled multiple times to Wuhan, Xiantao, and Jingzhou to track Mr. Zhang's whereabouts and apprehended him in Jingzhou on October 20, bringing him back to Jing Shan. Through interrogation and legal explanation, Mr. Zhang confessed to defrauding others by fabricating cryptocurrency transactions and expressed willingness to compensate the victim for losses.
On October 23, 2024, the police of the Xinshi Police Station of Jing Shan City returned 170,000 yuan of defrauded funds to the victim Mr. Li. Mr. Li expressed his gratitude to the investigating police for their quick resolution of the case and recovery of losses, and presented a banner inscribed with phrases such as 'Rapid case resolution demonstrates great power, actively pursuing recovery for the people.'
