In the following cases, WeChat will prompt "Please pay attention to verify the identity of the other party and beware of fraud".

1. When chatting with you, the other party involves sensitive words about money, such as RMB, bank card and borrowing money.

since wechat fraud mostly aims at defrauding money, wechat will give a prompt to help protect the property safety of users when money is involved in the chat. In this case, users must be careful. If you can't determine the identity of the other party, you must verify it by phone or video conversation.

2. The other party does not log in at the common login location.

if the other party doesn't log in at the common login location, it may be that WeChat has been hacked, and the hacker may use the relationship between the hacked person and other users to commit fraud. When the other party presents sensitive information about money, identity cards, etc., be sure to confirm the authenticity of the other party's identity.

3. When chatting with you, the other party involves sensitive words such as ID number and password.

In order to prevent the user's personal information from being leaked and the user's online account from being used for fraud, WeChat will also prompt "Check the identity of the other party" when detecting related words. If a newly added strange account involves this when talking to you, please report it and blacken it.

4. The other party has been reported many times.

If the other party has been reported by other users for many times, it may be a fraudster, so WeChat will remind users to be vigilant. Generally speaking, users will not be reported for no reason, so users who have been reported many times are highly suspected of fraud, and may even engage in pyramid schemes and other illegal acts. Please be vigilant about the business relationship with them.

After chatting in the group to gain the trust of the victim, the criminal gang finally asks the victim to transfer money to a designated account.

Trick 4: Online Prostitution Fraud

Criminals actively add "people nearby" on WeChat as friends. In the chat between the two parties, they disclose information such as providing young ladies and pornographic services and send explicit photos. After luring lecherous people to take the bait, they ask the victims to send multiple 2 yuan red envelopes in the name of collecting deposit, security fee, clothing fee and vehicle fee.

The victim was blacked out by criminals while waiting for the young lady's door-to-door service. Victims of such fraud are often reluctant to report to the police, and even when the police verify their deception, it is easy to show their feelings of not cooperating with the investigation.

Trick 5: online stock recommendation fraud

Criminals actively add the victim's WeChat, chat with the victim by words and gain the trust of the victim, and then drag the victim into the WeChat group, and then the so-called "stock recommendation master" bragged about the stock recommendation through the webcast platform, and other "stock friends" in the group helped to trick the victim into injecting funds into the fake securities trading platform.
