Xinhua News Agency, Wuhan, November 6 (Reporter Feng Guodong) As the "double 11" is approaching, Wuhan police recently reported a typical online shopping refund fraud case that has been high recently. The scam is highly confusing and has attracted many consumers. The police reminded consumers to take precautions.

　　According to the Wuhan police report, on September 20th, Ms. Hou, a consumer in Wuhan, reported to the police that she received a fake customer service call the next afternoon after online shopping, saying that the transaction of the goods she bought was unsuccessful and asked her to inquire. Ms. Hou logged into her shopping account and found that the goods she bought were gone, so she "registered" according to the requirements of the other party. That night, the "customer service" called and claimed that the mobile phone verification code needed to be verified. There were three mobile phone verification codes. She told the truth, and later found that her bank card was transferred three times, resulting in a total loss of more than 97,000 yuan.

　　On October 25th, the consumer Mr. Liu received a mobile phone call starting with "170". The other party claimed to be the customer service of the merchant, saying that a piece of clothing purchased by Mr. Liu online may have quality problems. In order to express "apology", the merchant will give him a refund, and then a refund link was sent, requiring Mr. Liu to enter the bank card number, password and mobile phone verification code at the time of payment. Mr. Liu complied, and as a result, the deposit of more than 10,000 yuan was immediately transferred.

　　The police reminded that criminals obtained consumer information through illegal channels, pretending to be the customer service staff of the shopping website to call or send text messages to consumers, and sending a refund link or QR code on the grounds of "system error", "out of stock" and "there is something wrong with the goods". Once the victim clicks on the link to enter the bank card information or scan the code, the money in the card will be transferred away. Some criminals use technical means to log in to consumers’ shopping accounts, hide the pages of their purchased goods, implant links with Trojans, and then pretend to be customer service to call and get SMS verification codes.

　　Wuhan police suggested that regular shopping platforms will not refund in the form of links or QR codes. When you apply for a refund, you should follow the rules on the regular e-commerce platform, don’t click on the link sent by the other party easily, and don’t enter your account number and password on unreliable websites. If the "customer service" asks for the mobile phone verification code, it must be highly vigilant. Consumers should call the police at the first time after discovering that they have been cheated, so that the police can start procedures to help recover losses.

Nowadays, with the continuous development of information and communication technology, telecommunication network fraud crimes committed by means of mobile phones, fixed telephones and the Internet frequently occur, and people’s property safety is seriously violated.

Beware of telecommunication network fraud

Protect your purse.

Please collect this article!

First, what is telecommunication network fraud?

Telecommunication network fraud refers to the behavior of criminals to defraud a large amount of public and private property by making up facts or concealing the truth through telephone, internet and text messages for the purpose of illegal possession.

Second, the common means of telecommunication network fraud

1. Fraud in the name of winning the prize

Criminals use communication software to release winning information to online users, and then cheat others’ property on the grounds that "deposit or tax must be paid first to receive bonuses".

2. Use online banking fraud.

Criminals demand that the victim log on to the phishing website of a fake bank on the grounds of upgrading the bank’s online banking, and obtain information such as the victim’s bank account and online banking password to commit fraud.

3. Fraud on the grounds of recruitment positions

Criminals take advantage of customers’ eagerness to apply for a job, and cheat others of their property in various names such as "post deposit, clothing fee and insurance fee".

4. Pretending to be an acquaintance fraud

Criminals steal other people’s QQ numbers, micro-signals and telephone numbers, pretend to be other people’s leaders, colleagues and friends, and defraud other people’s relatives and friends of their property on the grounds that others have a car accident or are seriously ill.

5, posing as a judicial organ staff fraud

Criminals pretend to be public security personnel, falsely claiming that the identity information of the victim has been exposed, and that the bank account is suspected of money laundering, fraud and other crimes. In order to ensure that the victim does not suffer losses, the victim is required to transfer the bank deposit to a safe account provided by the criminal, thus defrauding others’ property.

6, posing as a tax department staff fraud.

Pretending to be a tax department, vehicle management department, etc., asking the victim to pay a certain handling fee on the grounds that the country has adjusted the tax rate for buying a house and buying a car, thus defrauding others of their property.

7. Use online shopping fraud

Criminals provide false links or web pages to the victims, and then ask the victims to make multiple payments on the grounds that the transaction is unsuccessful, or the products sold are fake and shoddy, defrauding others of their property.

8. Use social software to defraud

Using social software, in the name of falling in love and making friends online, induce others to reward, transfer money, invest, etc., and defraud others of their property.

Third, how to prevent telecommunication network fraud

1. Not credulous

We shouldn’t trust phone calls and short messages from unknown sources. All calls to enter ID number or bank card information or transfer money will be hung up, and no text messages will be returned. Don’t click on websites of unknown origin. If in doubt, you can call the police or ask relatives and friends for proof, so as not to give criminals an opportunity.

2. Not greedy for profit

The reason why criminals can succeed repeatedly is often to take advantage of the public’s love for cheap. Therefore, we must believe that "there will be no pie in the sky", and ill-gotten gains are not greedy, and improper benefits are not desirable. Only in this way will we not be deceived by criminals.

3. Protect your privacy.

Protect your privacy. Don’t easily disclose your identity information, deposits, bank cards, etc. of yourself and your family to others. The password setting of the bank card should not be too simple, and it should be covered by hand when entering the password. When operating online banking, it is best to manually enter the official website of the bank to prevent logging in to phishing websites.

4. Call the police in time

When you find yourself cheated or hear that your relatives and friends have been cheated, you should keep relevant evidence (such as the criminal’s account number, text messages sent, telephone records, etc.) and immediately report the case to the public security organ so that the public security organ can file a case for investigation.

Four, the legal provisions of fraud

Article 266 of the Criminal Law of People’s Republic of China (PRC) stipulates that whoever defrauds public or private property in a relatively large amount shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, criminal detention or public surveillance, and shall also or only be fined; If the amount is huge or there are other serious circumstances, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than ten years and shall also be fined; If the amount is especially huge or there are other especially serious circumstances, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than 10 years or life imprisonment, and shall also be fined or confiscated. Where there are other provisions in this Law, such provisions shall prevail.

　　Xinhua News Agency, Shijiazhuang, May 23 (Reporter Gong Zhihong, Gao Bo) In recent years, every autumn and winter, smog weather has become a "heart and lung disease" that plagues Hebei. Among the bottom ten air quality rankings of 74 cities in China, Hebei occupies 5 to 7 seats every year.

　　After five years of treatment, the average concentration of PM2.5 in Hebei Province in 2017 was 65 μ g/m3, which was 39.8% lower than that in 2013, exceeding the target set by the national "Atmosphere Ten".

　　Curettage of bone to cure poison: open the knife to structural pollution

　　"Last November, we shut down two production lines." Li Bingchen, Minister of Environmental Protection Department of Great Wall Glass Co., Ltd. in Shahe City, Hebei Province, told reporters that last year was the best time for the glass market. Taking the initiative to shut down is tantamount to cutting the meat and gouging out the heart, but if environmental protection is not enough, it may drag down the development of the whole company.

　　Glass industry is the pillar industry of Shahe. At present, Shahe has an annual output of 160 million weight boxes of flat glass, accounting for about 20% of the national total. Zhang Lige, deputy director of Shahe Branch of Xingtai Environmental Protection Bureau, said that due to the agglomeration of glass enterprises, Shahe is facing great environmental pressure. Therefore, Shahe has implemented stricter emission standards than the national standards. The national emission standards for sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides in the glass industry are 400 mg/m3 and 700 mg/m3 respectively, and the local standards have been raised to 50 mg/m3 and 200 mg/m3 respectively.

　　The emphasis on industrial energy structure is the fundamental reason for air pollution in Hebei. The emissions of sulfur dioxide, nitrogen oxides and smoke dust from steel, cement, electricity and other industries account for 75.7%, 87.2% and 87.5% of the province’s industrial emissions respectively, which are important sources of air pollution.

　　Since 2013, Hebei has taken structural adjustment as a fundamental solution with the courage to cure poison by scraping the bones, and has played a "combination boxing" such as reducing coal, managing enterprises and controlling vehicles, and vigorously promoted air pollution control.

　　Qian Li, vice governor of Hebei Province, said that Hebei formulated and implemented stricter national standards. From 2013 to 2017, the province reduced the steel-making capacity by 69.93 million tons, coal by 31.44 million tons, cement by 70.57 million tons and glass by 71.73 million weight boxes, all exceeding the national targets.

　　In view of the chronic pollution caused by the energy structure of "one coal dominates", Hebei launched a "tough battle against coal", and completed a total of 3.278 million households replacing coal with gas and electricity in rural areas, contributing 44% to the improvement of the average concentration of PM2.5 during the heating period.

　　Due to historical reasons, many counties and districts in Hebei have formed the phenomenon of "scattered and polluted" enterprises clustered together, which has an important impact on the environment. In 2017, Hebei cleaned up and rectified 108,000 "scattered and polluted" enterprises in accordance with the principles of shutting down and banning a batch, integrating and relocating a batch and upgrading a batch.

　　Scientific Haze Control: "Civil air defense+technical defense" laid tight encirclement.

　　There are many sources of pollution, and the grass-roots environmental protection law enforcement power is limited, which is a common problem in Hebei’s air pollution control. To this end, Hebei implements expert guidance, scientific treatment of haze, and implements "civil air defense+technical defense" to strengthen environmental supervision.

　　There are more than 50,000 environmental supervision enterprises in Hengshui, but there are only 513 grassroots environmental law enforcement personnel. The city has established a "two networks and two systems" intelligent platform for air governance to realize real-time monitoring of air quality and major pollution sources in the region. Once the pollutants exceed the standard, the system will automatically alarm and transmit the point information to the mobile phone of law enforcement officers.

　　"The automatic monitoring network of pollution sources not only establishes corresponding monitoring facilities for special factors emitted by different pollution sources, but also records electricity in separate tables for enterprise production facilities and pollution control facilities to realize full monitoring of pollution nodes." He Litao, director of Hengshui Environmental Protection Bureau, introduced.

　　At present, 143 counties (cities, districts) in Hebei have taken the lead in achieving full coverage of monitoring points throughout the country. Hebei proposed that this year, all monitoring stations in towns and development zones above the provincial level and infrared monitoring of open burning will be fully covered. Fully implement the three-level grid supervision of counties and villages, and realize the full coverage of the construction of township environmental protection institutes.

　　In the past five years, Hebei has strengthened the top-level design and intensively issued a series of guiding documents on air pollution prevention and control. In 2017, the 1+18 plan for air pollution control was formulated, covering all aspects of air pollution control such as industrial structure optimization, industrial enterprise governance, clean heating transformation, urban and rural greening and expansion. Twenty-nine departments of cities and provincial governments in Hebei set up "1+18" policy system promotion agencies, established a list of tasks, responsibilities and time limits, and formed a strong synergy for tackling pollution.

　　Iron fist pollution control: opening up the "last mile" of environmental protection

　　In order to solve the "last mile" problem of haze control, Hebei took the lead in establishing a provincial-level environmental protection supervision system in the country by drawing lessons from the central supervision model, taking the ineffective implementation of haze control measures as an important part of the provincial party Committee’s supervision accountability, and introducing air quality notification ranking and reward and punishment accountability methods.

　　The cities and counties that failed to achieve the air quality improvement target in 2017 were publicly exposed in the TV media, and one county magistrate and four deputy county magistrates were dismissed. The province gave 2,107 disciplinary actions to the party and government due to poor governance.

　　In order to severely crack down on illegal sewage discharge, since September 2017, Hebei has made full use of the reform results of vertical management of monitoring, supervision and law enforcement of environmental protection agencies below the provincial level, coordinated environmental monitoring, law enforcement and monitoring forces at the provincial, municipal and county levels, and adopted different law enforcement and cross-enforcement methods to continuously carry out five rounds of special inspectors and law enforcement inspections for comprehensive air pollution control.

　　Zhang Guisheng, Environmental Inspector of Hebei Provincial Environmental Protection Department, said that in 2017, the province filed a total of 22,060 cases of environmental violations, with a penalty amount of 1.109 billion yuan, up by 192% and 153% respectively compared with 2016, ranking third and second respectively in the country.

　　Unremitting treatment, in exchange for frequent blue sky. In January and February of 2017, the cumulative concentration of PM2.5 in Hebei was as high as 114 μ g/m3, a year-on-year rebound of 46%; By December 31st, the concentration reached 65 μ g/m3, and the concentration decreased by 7.1% simultaneously.

　　Hebei proposed that in 2018, a three-year operational plan for air pollution control will be formulated to ensure that air quality "changes every year and achieves great results in three years", and strive to make Shijiazhuang, Hengshui and Tangshan take the lead in withdrawing from the last 10 air quality rankings of 74 cities across the country.
