#盗刷虚拟币 ! Litong police cracked a new type of online fraud gang case

Recently, Wuzhong Public Security Bureau Litong District Branch

successfully cracked a new type of case using the Internet to commit fraud and steal virtual currency

12 major criminal suspects including gang organizers, backbones, and technical maintenance were arrested

24 similar cases across the country were cracked

1 million yuan of funds involved in the case were frozen

In early February, a resident of Litong District reported that he logged into the "XX Wallet" App account to sell virtual currency, and a stranger sent him a text message URL, saying that the account was suspected of illegal operation and asked the victim to enter the account and login password. Later, it was found that 5,000 yuan worth of virtual currency in the "XX Wallet" App account was stolen.

This new type of Internet theft case has concealed means of crime and complex network technology, which is difficult to crack. After the incident, the Criminal Investigation Brigade of Wuzhong Public Security Bureau and the Criminal Investigation Brigade of Litong District Branch set up a special task force to investigate.

After more than a month of continuous fighting, the task force initially locked in the online crime gang headed by Xiao and others. On March 19, the task force went to Chongqing, Shandong and other places. After seven days and seven nights of investigation, they finally successfully defeated a criminal gang that stole virtual currency through the Internet in a certain place in Chongqing.

In order to combat crime in the entire chain and completely destroy the criminal gang, the task force tracked the suspect who provided technical support to the gang. On April 9, the task force went to Shandong Province again and successfully captured the suspect. After interrogation, the suspect confessed to the crime of providing illegal links to Xiao and others to steal virtual currency.

The police reminded: With the development of science and technology, the forms and means of new types of network crimes are constantly changing and upgrading. The general public must be vigilant, do not believe or blindly follow anything involving personal property safety, and contact the public security organs in time to protect personal property safety.
