Mr. Jin and his son, who live in Yuzhong District, have been playing in the "cryptocurrency circle" for a while and have made some money by buying and selling "U coins". But not long ago, they "turned over".
In early November this year, Mr. Jin received a call from Jiang, an acquaintance in the "currency circle", saying that his friend Fan needed to buy 350,000 yuan of "U coins".
"I had done several transactions with Jiang before, and they went smoothly. We also established a certain level of trust, so I agreed." After discussing with his son, Grandpa Jin met with the two men offline at the intersection of two roads at 9 o'clock that evening, and conducted the transaction in the buyer Fan's car.
The light in the car was dim. After getting on the car, Mr. Jin vaguely saw several bundles of money on the back seat. Judging from the thickness, there were 3 bundles of 100,000 yuan and 5 bundles of 10,000 yuan, which was exactly 350,000 yuan. "I took a quick look and saw that they were all 100 yuan in cash." Mr. Jin picked up a bundle of 10,000 yuan "banknotes" and before he could count them, Fan saw it and snatched it away.
"We are all 'acquaintances', how can you not trust us?" Fan played the acquaintance card, took the "money" and shook it in front of Mr. Jin, and rubbed it quickly with his fingers. Mr. Jin could not tell the authenticity of the money with his naked eyes, so he believed it and put it all into the backpack he was carrying without further inspection or counting. He then called his son and transferred more than 48,000 "U coins" to Jiang, who then transferred them to Fan.
On the way home, Mr. Jin felt something was wrong. He opened his backpack and carefully counted the money. He found that except for the top and bottom two of the five bundles of 10,000 yuan, all the other "banknotes" were "training tickets" used by bank staff to practice their money counting skills. The total loss was 349,000 yuan. Mr. Jin immediately called to question the bank, but the bank made excuses for various reasons and was later blocked. The next day, Mr. Jin, who was full of anger, called the police for help.
After receiving the alarm, the Lianglukou Police Station of the Public Security Bureau of Yuzhong District immediately reported it to the Criminal Investigation Brigade of the Joint Bureau to launch a joint operation. Through in-depth investigation and judgment, the special police quickly verified the identity information and whereabouts of the relevant persons involved in the case, and successively arrested Jiang, Fan, and Chen who bought the "exercise voucher" to defraud.
According to the confession of the suspect Jiang, in several previous transactions with Mr. Jin, he found that Mr. Jin often did not check and count the cash carefully, so he came up with a bad idea. He took advantage of this habit of the victim and boldly bought "training coupons" to pretend to be real money transactions to commit fraud.
At present, the relevant suspects have been detained for suspected fraud, and the case is still under further investigation. The defrauded "U coins" have been fully recovered and returned to the victims. At the same time, the police have given warnings to Mr. Jin and his son about investing in virtual currencies. #内容挖矿 Follow me! Get more information about the cryptocurrency circle! $PNUT
